Do you SERIOUSLY think this has digressed into a discussion about buying friends?! No one ever mentioned the economics of belonging to a fraternity or sorority. What Tom and I have touched on is plain and simple marketing and sales. You are trying to 'sell' new members the benefits of membership in your particular chapter (over all others) and one of the marketing tools is the opportunity of a lifetime of sisterhood. You also realize that it takes longer time to build that deeper feeling than just three times visiting a chapter during recruitment - and even four years of college. HOWEVER, you have people join your organization before that process can even begin - that takes sales and marketing!
