The other thing about being below total is the number of women you return with in the fall. If total is 160, and you have 140, you may think it's not a big deal, returning with 105 when other chapters return with 120. However, the chapters below total are also the most likely to take upperclassmen, as a general rule of thumb, so they end up with more than a quarter of their women graduating each year. Perhaps they return to campus with 90 when other chapters have 120. That starts to be a more and more noticeable deficit going into recruitment, and they will constantly be trying to catch up.
