You can probably tell by my username, but my chapter is very very large. It has it's benefits and downsides.
Benefits
- I always have a sister to talk to
- If you fight with one sister, there's a couple hundred more you can befriend
- "I have nothing to wear!" is never an issue
- There's always someone in an organization you want to join, which makes it a lot easier to reach out on campus
- pomping is a lot easier with a couple hundred members
Downsides
- I have no idea who a lot of my sisters are. I'm friends with everyone on Facebook, but I couldn't put names to faces.
- Ceremonies are ridiculously long
- There's always drama
- Never enough space
I wish my campus would bring on more NPC to help balance our chapters out. I believe every chapter is close to 400+ members and it's really impeding our sisterhood when sisters can't even recognize who's in our chapter unless their wearing letters. I love my sorority, but I do with we could have a recruitment where every sorority can take the number of women they are most comfortable with without having to worry about NPC trying to give every girl a bid. I'm all for inclusion, but with 2100+ women coming through recruitment, I think there should be a line of how large we let our chapters get.
