This is NOBODY'S decision but that of the [inter]national office and the chapter. If girls don't want to go through formal rush for fear of being matched with the chapter, I guess they won't be Greek then. Oh well. When a chapter is told that they are too small to have a "positive sorority experience," many times it's the haranguing and pressure from HQ or their advisors/alumnae that are really what is causing the lack of a positive experience...not their size. If they can pay for whatever their housing situation is and have enough members for offices, all's good.
However, if the chapter is being a jagoff and continually voting against expansion, that's another kettle of fish. Their [inter]nationals might want to explain to them why this will make them social pariahs...or vice versa.
