long wait as many who'd join a new group will remain GDIs
forever rather than pledge a hogger outfit. ..and the Pi Phis are
at 250 girls....MY POINT...I recall as a fielder visiting a minor school in S Dakota, asking the Dean for permission to come on, had men, had alums, had board, had advisor, etc. He ref used, saying, well, the swig taws are weak so we cannot let
someone else on until they get strong. This four chapter school is still waiting...40 years later..'cept it is now a school with two chapters...and both of them are weak.
What I am saying is that some systems are dying because the
bottom rung will not rise, and many would rather not pledge than
join a weenie group. Take a look at your campus. Has the % of
Greeks slipped? W hy? If there are several chapters over 100
and a few under 30, why? And why is it they let's say, let Pike
on...and they get 120 men in two weeks? The weak sist ers are eatin' bon bons in the meantime, wonderin ' what the H happened...and the Greek advisor is nowhere to be found...
Fellow GREEKS...now is the time to expand, to have your system grow. The statement that the interest is not there is pure
BULLSHIT...pehaps not as we are now, but TRUE FRATERNIT Y
will prevail. Expand your systems. The weenies will either die or improve, but in the meantime your clout and pride'll grow !

Q for Frater Conard


What did Wilson Heller say about "outfits" with over 100 inactive chapters?

If there is so much room for expansion then why so many inactive chapters?

Instead of trying to expand maybe you should spend a little more time improving your existing chapters.
