Sure a chapter may have a numbers issue, financial issue, or something like that, but consider that there are women in that chapter who love the organization and have alot invested in that chapter (which has been a big part of their life in college).
Ok, so a chapter of my sorority doesn't match quota and isn't regarded as the "best chapter ever?" So? Who am I to say that they are better off closed?

@bolded: Okay, which is why I asked why these chapters continue operating; thus continuing the trend of women who love XYZ and tried so hard only to have their efforts fall flat and be saddened when their chapter closed. It must be hard to be an alumna and see your chapter close, but I bet it's much harder to have your chapter closed while you're an undergrad.
And I was never referring to chapters that aren't "the best ever"- I was referring to chapters that continuously struggle with recruitment/quota/total/finances/reputation/etc and are clearly the most troubled on their campus.
