I still stand by my opinion that a national org SHOULD wait a while, anyways. Any reputation the chapter may have will be gone, and it seems easier to start completely fresh... and its not like Rutgers is so Greek friendly to begin anyways.
the new Crow house looks amazing, btw.

Thanks, I put a lot of energy into that place, and I think the new group will fit in well there.
As for the waiting rule, it is traditionally how some nationals approach a clean slate to their collegiate chapters. Get rid of them and then redo it. In other instances, it is the university that imposes the rule, OFSA in our case, and force a chapter from being able to return to campus for X amount of years.
Alpha Sigma Phi was a bad situation, and I felt bad for how they got thrown off. Being on the judicial board, it was a tough situation with how to deal with them. Delta Phi hasn't returned yet, and I don't know if they have plans to come back. St Elmo's is magnificent from what I hear these days.
For AXO, I won't post any comments here, not that they are bad, but it's something we could discuss over PM if necessary. From what I hear though, you guys are coming back in a good way... Did you put those letters back up yet though?
Rutgers is improving it's relations with the Greek community, so don't think things are getting better. I've read through the steering committee's draft report from Dr. Dennis and I think it has potential. The greek life there is only as good as you guys want it to be. Just have fun and don't worry.
