Otherwise you would end up with a dynamic Greek system, which is not to the benefit of the campus. Better to keep however many sororities it takes to fill the campus, and not have groups constantly coming and going.

I guess I just don't understand the concept of wanting to keep things equal artificially. Apparently, I'm the only greek on the planet who doesn't get it, though.
Not everyone would be interested in the larger houses, all else being equal, and not everyone interested in the larger houses would necessarily be pledged, right?
Oh, well...enough people on these forums have told me to shut up and color. I guess I'll do so.
