On the original topic, Alpha Delt is more concerned about being the best fraternity, not the biggest. We choose not to charter organizations at every directional school (Northwest State College, Eastern Massachusetts University etc). I get a fresh inquiry every three weeks or so about starting ALpha Delt at various schools, but we choose not to go that way. If that makes us snobs, then so be it. Alpha Delt is well known amongst the top schools in North America. That's all we care about.
