Back to the orginal question ....
To give insight to naraht's orginal question ...
You probably don't hear about as many sorority closures due to the confidentiality-like agreements between university adminitrators and a NPC HQ in little or no PR/press, ESPECIALLY if there is an issue of hazing.
In those cases, there may be legal cases to be filed and neither group wants to set themselves up for being named. As well, the university may want the NPC group to deal with it internally, and if they are satisified with the outcome, won't push their own sanctions etc.
Low numbers - if its a matter that a chapter has low numbers and gets closed, any announcement is usually to the local campus paper. The NPC group is usually invited to re-colonize in 4-5 years, so there is little PR so to have the new chapter have a fresh start. (ie. Alpha Gamma Delta regretablly closed it's Alpha chapter at Syracuse earlier this month with intentions of coming back in a few years - announcement was made in the Daily Orange by the administration)
This is has been my experince in 'watching' Greek news and dealing with chapters in similar situations. Certainly an interesting 'phenonmenon' - something to keep checking ....
