They were inactive according to the current and accepted definition of
becoming inactive. They were not on "War Leave", as many chapters were
during WWII. According to National records, which Pat Burke supplied us
the last time we had this discussion, Gamma chapter at Cornell was
funtionally inactive. This is only partially due
to the war, and there were other circumstances that I am not completely
aware of (and so I will not discuss until I am sure my facts are correct),
but the chapter was declared officially inactive, and are recognized as
being deactivated in the 40's, and having to re-charter because of this.
