I was not, but my diamond sister did for a semester. Because of personal reasons it was going to be next to impossible for her to afford dues or be active in the chapter that semester. What she did have to do though was write a formal letter to the exec board and advisors, and they had to decide on it and have it approved by district advisors. It was a very hard decission for her, but it did work out better that way in the end. After, she was able to come back and be very active with the chapter.
