Is that what you were asking?
Of course, I could be completely off on that last post and women will keep joining sororities at Arkansas even if they get to 600-700 people in a chapter so they can wear the letters, because they feel that alone is worth the $$.

I wouldn't say it is necessarily just to wear the letters, but you are on the right track in my opinion. At some schools, being greek is so desirable that the quality of the experience may be less of an issue than at other schools. I went to a school where it was very hard to be a non-greek. So, even girls that weren't OMG Sorority Girls! tended to join because it was expected socially. They took what they wanted from the experience.
