I think being married would affect a PNM's recruitment experience at highly competitive SEC campuses. Perhaps it shouldn't, but being married would set the PNM apart from most of the 18 year-old first year students who are rushing, and it itself will fall into that nebulous area of "fit" for a chapter.
Anything that puts you outside of the typical new member demographic may be a risk that the chapter doesn't want to fool with.
I'm not trying to say that it should have this effect, but I'm afraid it would have that effect.
