also another good point, you expressed better than i wanted to.
and not that this reason is an excuse for poor grades, but smaller NPHC chapters make for resources being spread thin. ie. a chapter of 5, for example, has to attempt to do the work of what, at minimum 50-60 girls of an average NPC chapter to stay afloat. and often of that chapter of 5, some of those girls are involved with 50-11 other things on campus.
its never just classes, chapter, and partytime. grades get sacrificed often. and as mentioned above, law of averages.
