Obviously Natalie, you have not worked with the Greeks on much of a scale. You cannot support a chapter, with a house,
Eric, I beg to differ...

Your plant size should reflect your chapter size... Generally over time, a successful chapter will maintain itself (or grow) around a certain #.

If your plant size is the right one for the chapter you'll do fine. A 30-35 man chapter can EASILY support a house large enough to support 10 or so men... On some campuses this is acceptable.

At my house, the largest fraternity on campus is only up around 80 members and is currently residing in what looks like a 2 story double wide trailer.

The standard is not the same from campus to campus. You have to look at each individual situation and even further, each individual chapter.
