Someone quoted me in another thread, so I'll quote it back:
176 chapters - Chi Omega
More than 150 chapters - Delta Zeta, Zeta Tau Alpha
More than 130 chapters - Delta Gamma, Alpha Phi, Delta Delta Delta, Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Chi Omega
More than 115 chapters - Alpha Omicron Pi, Pi Beta Phi, Kappa Delta, Phi Mu, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta
More than 100 chapters - Gamma Phi Beta, Sigma Kappa, Alpha Gamma Delta, Sigma Sigma Sigma, Alpha Xi Delta, Phi Sigma Sigma
More than 50 chapters - Alpha Sigma Tau, Alpha Sigma Alpha, Alpha Epsilon Phi, Delta Phi Epsilon
50 or fewer - Sigma Delta Tau, Theta Phi Alpha
(corrected for inaccurate numbers on PSS)
These numbers could be off by a few, of course.
But size isn't all. What about endowment relative to size? And what about their burn rate? Two nationals each have 75 chapters, say. What if one is opening new chapters fast and furious, running down their capital? If a lawsuit hits them, they could be broke so fast. The other chapter could have the money socked away to weather the storm.
And what about reputation? I don't mean "good" vs. "bad." But some groups have more prominent members than others, and if a PR crisis hits, it might help to have, say, a Bush on your side.
