I'm glad I finally get to defend a "Popular" chapter. So you had "uninspiring" conversations with how many girls? Are these chapters filled with clones? Did you talk to every girl in the chapter? 3/4 of the chapter? 1/2? Less than 10 members? How do you really know how involved or uninvolved they are? Did you ask the "uninspiring" girl? Maybe she just doesn't know. She's probably a member like EVERY chapter has that must be FORCED to come to recruitment, doesn't know anyone or anything about any of her sisters. Maybe I'm wrong, but judging an entire chapter because of a few bad conversations is pretty silly.
As for a bad GPA...your GPA doesn't have to be effected by the chapter's GPA, and that is something that can be fixed rather rapidly. My chapter's GPA went from 3rd out of 4 to the top GPA on campus consistently while I was a collegiate. Chapter GPA is certainly not etched in stone.
Sorry if you felt attacked, but you spouted off a lot of code words that we all hate to hear.
