Chapters are NOT required to take a full UC quota, but most do since the UC women are so accomplished.

I guess I have a dumb question, then. Why hasn't the culture of the school (or any UC school) just naturally changed out of the mindset that freshman = better? In that instance, it seems like as long as you have an upperclass quota, even one set so large, that is what you are saying. If the women haven't learned by now that upperclassmen are wonderful members who often end up staying around longer (i.e. not dropping out) and contributing more than someone who joins as a freshman, what more will it take?
