You have a point, but in a big, competitive southern sorority system, the junior has no chance unless she's a special case.
Interesting theory about the 1950s. I heard an additional explanation just yesterday. He said, "Once a girl becomes a senior she's lost to the sorority, deep into her major and possibly interning. They make their contributions from freshman through junior year. Plus," he said, "there's some PanHel rule that will not allow women in post-graduate studies to be active in the sorority. So it's hard for a sorority tio get much out of juniors, and vice versa."
