Holding back the train (proposals by the all-male chapters)

[mrforklift]

All --

For Region IV, all Chapters have to be in compliance with the membership policies of the Fraternity, regardless of what their current gender designation may be. The Section Chairs will be working with predominately-female Chapters on co-ed campuses to help them reach more of the student body, the same as they will be doing on the campuses of the 6 "all-male" Chapters.

As long as any Chapter is working with the Section and Region staffs to come into compliance, then the attitude from the Section and the Region will be one of support and guidance. If any Chapter chooses to not be in compliance with any rule or policy of the National Fraternity AND actively works against efforts to bring said Chapter into compliance, then the attitude will shift to one of enforcement and rigidity. I can not speak for any other RDs. I can be contacted off-list if you have specific questions for me.

That being said, I ask that all Chapters and Brothers govern themselves accordingly.

Note, from my information, the six as of the 2006 national convention are:
Auburn U. - Delta (69)
Clemson U. - Gamma Lambda (77)
Samford U. - Gamma Chi (69)
Florida A&M U. - Kappa Delta (74)
Tuskegee U. - Pi Zeta (69)
Fort Valley State U. - Phi Zeta (72)

From the last time I posted the list of all-male chapters, the ones in Region IV which are no longer are Austin Peay State U and Carson-Newman College, which were declared inactive in 2004 and 2007 respectively.
