chapter losses...how many, where?

[Erik P Conard]

Have any of you inquired from your national (no S) or from your
international (no S) how many chapters you have lost in the past, say, five years?
How many did you lose last year? Where? Why?
It is high time we come to grips with these losses. And the miserable U officials, eager to build empires, snatch up the houses without having to go to the legislature for the bucks to build new structures...nefarious, sneaky.
Again, how many did your outfit lose? There's not that many being kicked off, i.e., destroying the entire system. Alumni offices are well aware that Greeks are the biggest donors...but the tenured
profs and administrators do not care...they are empire builders.
Nice to have the students all sequestered in ten-story high rises,
all neatly controlled...another layer of bureaucracy we need....
And the composites of uglies in the co-ed outfits continue to pop up...and in the meantime, we are pressing our crinolines and our
bloomers and our sashes and sabres...
How many did your outfit lose last year? Will you be next? Will you merely bury your head in the sand, and look forward to getting out, joining the Junior League or Jaycees?
