This is the biggest problem. If sororities KNEW they could come in and have huge numbers immediately and keep them there, they wouldn't hesitate to take out the mother of all loans because they'd make it back in a few years with member dues. However, the university cannot make women join chapters, and at some of these schools the rushees would rather be nothing at all than go "new sorority."
The only thing the university could conceivably do would be to put an immovable cap on the groups (i.e. no group can have more than 200, screw quota) and again, if girls at schools like this got dropped by the "top" group they want, many would rather drop out of rush completely.
It's a really huge risk that can conceivably cripple a whole national organization if it doesn't work out well.
