Maybe it is a unversity thing in the Northeast? For example, Hofstra just keeps letting groups coming on (men and women). An "anti-sorority sorority" formed in the late 1980's - they then got roped into panhel to "control" them and today they are the newest NPC group on campus.
When I was an undergrad we had 5 NPC and 3 locals and my chapter was 80 women (it took a while to get quota total working so this was before it got going). Quota in formal recruitment in spring 2006 was 8 and total is 50. Chapters are much smaller today. Groups have to take new member classes in the fall just to keep themselves in the 40 range so their national offices don't put them on warning or probation.
