Why should they lose their charter?

The house, is a zoning code. Say you and your buddies, just some friends from school, not brothers, wanted to rent property that is zoned as a fraternity/sorority house. The city is going to classify a group by their recognition on campus. No recognition means you can't rent it b/c it will not be used for what it is zoned for. Same thing as if I wanted to open say a convience store in my house. No haouse anymore, just a convience store. The house is zoned as residential, I wouldn't be able to open the store unless I got the property re-zoned. Also it states in the article that they sign leases, so yes it is their house by lease. But, as I stated before, I'm sure DE has the same type of law as PA and that is a chpater can not own property.
Why should they lose their charter? You are found in violation of that many policies and you can't tell me that violating that many policies means your upholding the ideals that the fraternity was founded on.
