I therefore assume that you are not a business major.
If a college restricts their sales, it is their CHOICE.
QUOTA restricts sales, and quota is forced on the chapters by rules, sometimes made by the Panhel Council or by the school's dean, and enforced by them.
No outside rule maker forces the college to restrict sales, and they can accept as many freshmen/transfers as they can build/rent/buy classrooms and dorms to teach and house them.
Sorority rules are usually made by the handful of top sororities (look at the officers of your Panhel Council) and enforced by them. Quota helps keep them large and powerful, and also keeps the lesser chapter small and weak.
I call upon the small and weak to unite, and throw out the bums (and their quotas).

You are obviously not an economics major. It is bad business to have no roof on membership. Besides most women's fraternities are not trying to make money and cannot afford to have an endless number of members coming in at one time. Too many members coming in, means more money needed to run the chapter, which is stressful on non-profit orgs. We are not businesses so capitalistic views dont apply.
I feel quota is a good thing, something needs to be in place to regulate and make sure things are fair or as fair as possible for everyone involved. Mismatching does happen but I think that is more a computer or rush problem????
Thanks!!
