You cannot be a one man chapter. As terrible as it is to say, if the entire chapter rests soley on you, it is destined to fail either through your sheer exhaustion of the real fact that you will graduate and move on. If by contantly being "johnny on the spot" and taking on so many responsiblities, regardless of your good intentions, you in essence support their apathy. If no one wants to be involved other than the six of you, then you are better in my opinion being a six man alumni org than an active chapter.
Ditto to the advice to seek both alumni and HQ advice and support.
Your dedication and ehtusiasm is well apparent but you cannot, nor should you be expected, to maintain the chapter.
I really don't know where I'm going with this, other than I'm just tired of it all, but I can't leave because I love those three letters just too damn much.
You will never leave your letters...regardless of what you do.
