This is like a GC discussion I had with someone else about extension at another school where one group is small and nearly a dozen are at or over total. Do they really need another group or is the campus kidding itself? There does not HAVE to always be a weak group. I believe it was U of Missouri who used release figures this past Fall and EVERY group took quota. Nobody is weak and everyone benefited. Now will expansion occur there in the future? Possibly. Does it have to? Only if the groups feel they need to lower overall chapter size and new member classes get to be cumbersome (i.e. they can no longer fit chapter meetigns in their present locations etc).

To be fair, they just a lost a chapter there recently. So they're probably wanting to expand to replace the closed chapter as well as reduce the size of quota a bit. I doubt they're trying to create a "weak" group but add another strong one to the mix.

/I don't know the details there beyond the closed chapter
