Quality vs, Quantity? Ummm! Out west, we never have that problem. In a sense, we kinda open everything up. Chapters lock up with other chapters. Yes we even see other organizations.
For many of us, going to WHITE schools where we represented 2-3% of the population reminds me of the period of our founders. The bond that is developed from small lines can not be matched but larger lines? And YES, we still turn people away.
Quality should aways be a priority. Numbers will never matter. You are aways going to have a few people doing most of the work!
