Huge chapters are just so far from what I came from, it really is hard for me to fathom a greek system that is as large as my entire school population.
Because it is very expensive to colonize anywhere much less at one of the larger schools. You have the PR process the semester before colonization. Then you have the colonization process which takes 6 or more executive office/national office people (many more if it's an Alabama or the like) and housing them for about 2 weeks. Then you have the consultants who have to live with them for a semester or two. Then you have housing. Our house at Alabama that we just moved into last fall after one year on campus cost $8 million. No one gives that to you. And all that's jsut for starters. It's a very expensive process and not a step that groups take lightly.
