Oh, and yes NPCs look at GPAs for membership evaluation. And sometimes it turns out that a straight A high school kid can't do well with college level work, but I suspect that more often than not, good students continue to be good students and slackers continue to be slackers.
I also think that GPA is one of the areas in which NPC groups really like to compete to the level that it might affect individual behavior.
And if a group valued service or campus involvement more that being #1 in grades, then it would be hard to compete with the chapter that partially defined themselves by always being at the top of the GPA list.
