         Might have been "charter" instead of "chapter".  (That just
        makes more sense to me anyway.)  I didn't know the Board had
        the power to nullify charters?  I thought only the National
        Convention could do that.

I haven't gotten my T&T yet, but according to the National Bylaws
(Article IX Section 6 - just ammended in 1992):

Charters may be suspended for just cause between National Conventions
only after an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the National Board of
Directors.... Charters may be revoked only by two-thirds vote of
registered delegate present and voting at the National Convention...

Got a question? Order the Bylaws - they're free.

in service,
Lisa
