No, no shitstorm.
The only way this would be looked at negatively within the school or the national org is if the way they were getting these huge pledge classes was that no one was getting cut - i.e. taking the selectivity out of membership selection. As I said before, none of these groups is having to resort to taking Courtney Love Junior to get that quota of 100+ people. (I get the impression that sometimes that is the opinion when NPHC lines are super large.) There are huge numbers of awesome rushees that any chapter would love to have.

personally would hate the concept of not knowing all my chapter sisters' names and only having super close friendships with a fraction of the chapter, but then again, it's all what you're used to. I'm sure someone from Arkansas might come to my school and feel absolutely claustrophobic. You can develop sisterly relationships at either place. The only problem comes when you try to run/counsel/discipline/reward very different chapters in the same way.
