"Quality experience" means different things to different people. I would not consider being in a chapter of 175 women, some of whom I barely know, a "quality experience", although I'm sure my HQ (and most people's HQs) disagree.

It is quite difficult for a chapter to have a "quality experience" when their HQ is breathing down their neck 24/7/365 telling them to bid more girls, forcing them to have bid parties every single week, and then when they do, telling them the girls they've bid aren't acceptable.

If you're told on a regular basis that you suck - guess what! - it'll become a self fulfilling prophecy. If the things you love about yourselves are the things your HQ hates, no one will ever win.

Not everyone wants to be the biggest or most popular chapter on campus. If you are keeping things going at a steady level and don't have housing or RM or money issues, what's the problem?
I agree with most of what you said...I'll just point out that if you are having membership issues, that likely will lead to financial issues, especially when a house is involved.
