I'll clarify:
Competitive meaning there are usually less than 350 women going through recruitment for spots in 13 (or 15 if you count the two non-NPC) chapters. Pledge classes have ranged from 16-21 the past three years and chapter total is 85. Perhaps competitive isn't quite the right word. Recruitment can be stressful (as any recruitment can), but it is not as stressful, IMO, as it seems to be at campuses with larger chapters. With 15 sororities and 30 fraternities, the Greek community itself is rather large compared to some Universities, but it feels smaller and close-knit.
