It is LXA's policy not to exist on a campus where the campus itself will not recognize the chapter/colony. Believe me, I know this all too well - UNC revoked recognition of LXA in 89, and, even though the chapter was making significant progress in getting back on their feet, the de-recognition was a death sentence.
There are fraternities that will exist at a school where the campus will not recognize them. Pi Kappa Alpha and Sigma Pi come to mind at local campuses where the university revoked their recognition. Believe me, we do NOT want chapters like these...they became true example of Animal House - and therefore that was the membership they recruited for.
I believe HQ wants only to be on campuses where chapters will be recognized, for the role of the fraternity is to be a "partner" with the university in shaping the individual members. Where one organization or the other will refuse to recognize, this equation is null and void. I think Tom Helmbock even had a reference to this in a Reflections article some time ago.
