I think she's mostly making the comparison that total chapter size at Ole Miss is so large, it does seem "small" that the houses can only hold 40-60 women. I also understand OleMissGlitter's point that chapters are restricted by their lot and can't add on to accommodate more women living in.

Our house could accommodate 65 girls living in (at a campus where chapter total was 92 when I was there and has since been lowered to 85) but we rarely had all women eating at the same time, so the dining room held more like 50-55. We had an overflow area for those dinners where we had more women than usual eating (Scholarship banquet, Founders Day, etc...). There was definitely a process to keeping everything coordinated, though!
