IMHO, I think that the 'upsurge' is related to a larger societal issue of entitlement. Prospectives feel that if they meet the requirements, then they are owed membership, regardless of their reputation, legacy status or work ethic. On the other hand, members feel that they must make someone 'right' in order for them to wear the same letters, without regard to brotherhood/sisterhood, earning respect or their personal example of living the principles.

But this existed way before MIP.
