That's what I thought. At my undergraduate campus, fall recruitment results usually put the majority of the groups way about total. I'd like to believe that attracting girls from other groups didn't happen because we were more panhellenically minded, but really, it was probably just as much that the groups that were popular enough to pull pledges away never found themselves in that position. (Seriously, some of the groups came back for rush with not too far from total, I think.)
