Also, just to be competitive for membership, single-digits won't cut it. In most, maybe all cases where a fraternity is that far down in the tiers, the best thing to do is to shut down and start over with a clean slate.

For flying in consultants, it might make a difference whether there was another chapter of the fraternity within the city.I went to college at Carnegie-Mellon in Pittsburgh, it has Sigma Alpha Epsilon and so does University of Pittsburgh and Duquesne University. All of these schools are *considerably* closer to each other than either is to the Pittsburgh airport.
