And just because a house has a lower GPA point, also doesn't mean it's not desirable to girls.

It amazes me - in a good way - the emphasis that both PNMs and the Greek community put on chapter GPA nowadays, in terms of it making a chapter more or less desirable. Highest GPA has always been a bragging right, but people saying one chapter is "better" than another because of grades is something slightly odd to me.
