^^^yes. It's gotten increasingly competitive over the past several years. I am amazed at the quality of the PNMs (GPAs, activities, interests, experiences.) It's a very healthy system, and could certainly support more chapters BUT... there's the very real issue of REAL ESTATE and the prohibitive cost for paying for a lot, and then leasing it annually, plus building, plus no guarantee that the U of A won't come back on the chapter in a few years and say "we need the land." And no chapter can be competitive without housing in the current system/climate.
