Reassigning chapter letters to a new school?

My own chapter was established in 1959-Gamma Chi CSULB so by then the fraternity had begun assigning chapters in alphabetical order.

I found this thread under Delta Gamma

It lists all our chapters in founding order and further displays this early practice! There are quite a few more iterations of chapter repetitions, including the interesting and potentially "cursed" Delta, which has not been reassigned to any chapter. Eventually we took on the policy of not reassigning chapter names, and chapters closed now retain their designations.
