We have been attracting the same suburban nyc/penn/dc/boston prep boy/lacrosse playing types we do at most chapters, with a good number of their southern brethren. We know our market, and we do alright in it. We do not equate size with quality. It may take a while, but we will be a repected chapter at any campus we colonize. As more and more fraternities push tougher regulations(look at Kappa Sig at Ole Miss, Phi Delt at Sewanee and Virginia), you may see more and more old line chapters re-evaluate their relationship with their nationals. When they do, Alpha Delt will be there
PS Hey, Shinerbock, thanks for reminding me of my many visits to Austin every time I read your name
