I only know of 2 who intentionally disaffiliated without something like low membership, risk management, etc.

1. Kappa Delta Sigma, who did after they weren't permitted to pledge a minority student back in the 60's

2. Sigma Delta (which was actually a Sigma Kappa), at Darthmouth, which I found out about in a New York Times article that actually hosts parties in their house as they are local.

It was actually a Sigma Kappa chapter: https://www.sigmadelt.org/

Isn’t there a window of time where the GLO can recolonize? I mean, I would think that GPB could refuse to accept the charter surrender. But if the school’s a hot mess they might be happy to let it happen.

Sometimes they truly do, and sometimes it is worded that way but it really isn’t what is happening (ie you can either turn in your charter or we’ll yank it anyway).
