I only ask because I know SK tried a re-org on your campus this semester. It's really unfortunate that two houses closed back to back on the same campus in such a short period of time.  |
I've never heard of us "re-organizing" a chapter.
I truly believe, not just for us but for other sororities in general, that chapters are probably struggling for a while, and are most likely given help, prior to the decision is made for them to re-organize or close.
I don't think decisions are made lightly to re-organize or close, I just don't actually agree with re-organizing. The way DZ handeled the situation wasn't the best way to do it. What I personally feel they should have done is talk to DePauw and state that they want to close but would like to be able to recolonize on the campus in 4-5 years. Once the "reputation" of DZ has gone away a bit, then they come back with support from alums and HQ, and recolonize. I think that is a better idea than reorganizing and getting rid of 75% of the chapter. Plus, reorganizing doesn't alleviate the stigma or the rumors regarding the chapter.
