It might vary from school to school, but fraternities aren't under the pressure that sororities are to be at a certain number. And even if they were, all taking a sophomore means is that the chapter has to replace the member a year sooner to maintain the same chapter size. A small price to pay for a quality sophomore. Their loss.
