It just depends on the nature of the particular systems.
In a system that prides itself on "southern tradition," I think certain fraternities can.
I doubt that a traditionally solid chapter could be destroyed or something like that.
But if you made a list of sorority chapters by first round return rates, I think that four or five elitist fraternities deciding not to associate with the bottom third of this list could keep those groups from ever having an easy time of it in recruitment. If, on the other hand, the same fraternities elected to have socials with and regard and talk about those groups as worthy and desirable, I think the groups would be seen by PNMs are worthy and desirable.
Some of it's the guys' opinions; most of it's the girls caring what the guys think.
