A clear majority of the active membership (including alums who are active volunteers) wants the change and approves of the change. And proof that this is the case.

I got into a large discussion about the Greek situation on my campus with a dude who thought a Greek Row would solve all the problems. I asked several pertinent questions and he accused me of being "discouraging." I said if he could show me that the students wanted it and would support it - I would be fine with it - but I wasn't getting any of that from him, just a bunch of statistics and figures and fraternity corporatespeak that had nothing to do with our school situation.

Point being - show me that this change will actually unite the fraternity, rather than further divide it, and I'll be the first to get on board.
Actually you gave two answers. Your second one is what I was looking for.

As to your first answer, realize that even if this occurs you're going to have people who won't like/accept it, as has happened with other changes in our organization. (and I've seen this in other groups).
