I'm obsessed with recruitment, so I get to see all sorts of numbers and hear everything about every other chapter's numbers on campus due to my position. Here, if a sorority doesn't take a high number of girls, it's usually looked at negatively. If a fraternity takes a low number of guys one quater, it's usually looked at as a smart move because they want to rebuild... so comparing sororities to fraternities just doesn't work in my opinion.
Also, I agree that you can't say you either have quality or quantity. Theta here is one of the largest sororities and we have amazing women. We always place top three in Greek Week. We've had the Best All-Greek or PHA Grades for every quater for the past three years. We have smaller groups too that don't do as well as we do. But that doesn't mean they're a worse organization than us. You can't make generalizations because every chapter on every campus is different.
