In todays econmics is that worth teh $$$s?

No!

We cant afford it either!

Oh, no, I wasn't saying that... But the view from the outside isn't the same for fraternities as sororities. Let's face it, if a sorority misses quota by one, people are talking (what's wrong? Are they closing?), but fraternities don't even have quotas in the first place, and they are judged more on quality of guys and how difficult it is to get in, than size.

However, seeing what I've seen at USC with the houses being built, OF COURSE the smaller fraternities are going to suffer financially. That's why the biggest fraternities with the most alum support built first, and everyone else followed in line after.
