Here's my take...

We were coming back from disaster when I was a new member. There were 10 of us and only one was an initiated member that fall. It was good and bad. With such a small number, we made a difference but wish we could have done more and felt as though we only could by recruiting our butts off.

Fast forward to now, almost 7 years later... I advise my chapter and there are 32 active members. For the school and the community, it is a good size. However, they are no where as close as the ten of us were. However, they are a great group of women who work hard. I can't imagine a chapter over 100 ladies... but I also don't think our school community would support it being that long.

I like both though. I don't think that there is a perfect size as there are too many factors. I definitely don't think I could handle walking around, seeing letters, and not knowing the person. However, I do think that if you go through recruitment at a campus with HUGE houses, you are always use to that way of greek life and it seems normal and perfect for you.
