I am sure if the remaining 4 groups are OK colonizing at Indiana without a house, they too will be successful in their own right. Who is everyone to judge their experience without a house?
Even with the addition of 4 more unhoused chapters, unless Indiana makes the change to Quota / Total, too many women will still be without a house. AND I am sure many women would rather be in a SORORITY at IU than not.

A lot of women decide to drop out of the process if they don't get their desired houses, the desired houses tend to be the most exclusive with smaller pledge classes.
Also, the only reason the unhoused chapters seem successful and have similar sized chapters it is because most do informal fall and spring recruitment. The retention rate for unhoused chapters isn't very high.
