I think there are strong reasons for deferring (especially at big schools with so many sororities), but it certainly does hinder the numbers.
But do the women who pledge usually stay active throughout their senior year? Are the majority of the members active and happy with their choice?

I would rather have 40 sisters who are all involved and participating to the fullest than a chapter of 100 where half are just "jacket sisters" who only participate in the barest minimum to keep from getting kicked out.
