Hello everyone,
I'm asking this question because of a pattern I've noticed at my University and others. If it has already been answered, I'm sure someone will point me to the right thread.
At what point does a National Office decide to close a chapter due to low numbers? For example, we had a strong national sorority come in 1993 and they were gone by 2000 or 2001. Our chapter sizes vary from 100 to 200 and quota is typically about 50. So my question is...how can a new chapter be expected to have numbers that size in 3, 4, even 5 years? I'm not saying it's impossible...but so many chapters close within 3-5 years of their opening.
It's really disheartening to think of some of the great sororities that have left my campus over the years. I know that chapters leave for many reasons, but low numbers seems to be a biggie. What can be done?
