It's good to know that it's common to have a chapter stay static in personality types over the years.
It's something interesting to think about, especially as it relates to the idea of a struggling chapter and how they can overcome their issues.

I think it depends on the dynamics of the chapter and how obsessed they were with their uncompromising traditions. I think that many chapters may switch in terms of how the members look or dress but that's a surface level appearance of change and inclusion. When you get down to it, the members tend to think and act similar to the older members from that chapter.
So is it cool or uncool for rushees to think they know the "personality" of particular chapters and cater to it? Would that seem phony
or that the aspirants are genuinely interested in learning the chapters and being considered for membership?

Maybe he just didn't want to tip his hand about what group he was in?

I was actually moving away from sasquatch and typing in general. So if most remember then that's good.
