Delta Delta Delta will be closing this coming spring at Boston University due to low numbers. Sadly this is the Alpha Chapter. It does bring me hope that Tri Delta hopes to return in the future.

I had a feeling that was gonna happen. the NMC were near 180 (!) with 8 chapters. While Phi Mu closed recently, they do need a new house.

Very much needed!

Are there recently closed chapters looking to return?

What does their housing situation bring to the table?

The most recent closure was Phi Mu in 2024, but idk if they'll come back. There are a ton of chapters that could potentially return as seen from the shadokat thread.
