So Cal Girl, no, that money stays with the Alumni Corp or Alumni Assoc or which ever org. had it. They don't have to give it to nationals, but they don't have to give to the local guys.

as to original topic: no comment

I just realized ColumbiaPike means Columbia, SC. Duh, carry on

If you no longer believe in the goals and values of your national organization - you shouldn't be a part of it. Or you should work to change it.

In FIJI's case.....no. They are pretty much already diasaffiliated. They are extremely wealthy. Nationals can't take away private donations and funding.

If a fraternity that has a house disaffiliates, what happens to the house?

Not sure, but Dook does not have fraternity houses. They live in sections rather which is nothing more than a dorm.

Also, don't quote me on this, but I thought Dook's other local fraternity was in danger of losing their charter, so they broke with Nationals instead. Kind of a "you can't fire me because I quit!" type statement.

The house remains in the possession of who owns it. Which could be any or the following. The chapter's housing corporation, the GLO's inter/national headquarters, the GLO's inter/national housing corporation, the university, or the landlord if leased.

Texas Fiji

One of the four most prominent chapters at UT-Austin, their house is a landmark named something close to Buen Retiro if I remember correctly, this house has hands down the best location at UT right on Guadelupe they own a lakehouse, are strong in Spurs (the guys who tend Bevo)and Cowboys( the guys who shoot the cannon) and were a pretty decent group of guys. On a social level their only competition is SAE, KA and Delt, Sig Ep is a step down Maybe Phi Psi.
