I don't have the full story, but I do know from past info that:
* the chapter had not turned in their AAMD for 2 consecutive years and would have lost their charter at the February board meeting. If you stop sending in your AAMD for 2 years and no one can contact you...
* the only actives on the charter were going to graduate this past Spring. So if they didn't fix their AAMD issues and didn't get any new members on board...
Personally I hate it when chapters lose their charter, regardless of if they are co-ed or all-male. Its bad enough when chapters lose their charter because they were doing something they shouldn't have (like hazing), but I really hate it when it happens because the chapter wasn't doing their job, ie getting in their AAMD/recharter and fees on time AND recruiting new member so the chapter can prosper and continue and the like. It also doesn't help when these chapters don't stay in contact with the fraternity (ie, their SC, RD, &/or National Office). If a chapter is in trouble, they need to be in contact with the Fraternity so they can get them help.
Sad, just sad
