Starting a KKG chapter

For what it is worth, it is not unusual for one or more Murray State chapters to have informal recruitment in the spring.

My understanding is that most of the chapters are "right at" or “slightly over” total after fall rush. But after fall graduations, random early alum status, and with members studying abroad, any given chapter may be under total by a few members at the start of the spring semester. But still not enough "overall" to warrant expansion.

I wasn't trying to throw shade on the chapters with my comment. I was just trying to say that if a campus needed a new organization, there wouldn't be that many informal recruitment opportunities.

You are spot on. The criteria is "needs a new chapter", not "a new chapter wouldn't hurt anyone".

I didn't think you were. And as DeltaBetaBaby noted, you were spot on.
