There are 8 officer positions in TKE and this chapter only has 6. In my mind, there is no way this chapter has enough members to function.

And while not to speculate on this chapter's finances, I'd suspect with only 6 members, chapter finances will probably be less than stellar.

Thanks for answering. I know small NPHC chapters where members held more than one office.

35 is the size needed to charter a TKE chapter?

See, if 35 was the requirement to charter Delta collegiate chapters, there wouldn't be so many Delta collegiate chapters. LOL. That's why I asked about the minimize chapter size for TKE.
