Well, here's the thing -- even if Greek life is really low-key on a campus, colony recruitment isn't conducted by the campus staff or students.

Colony recruitment, for the most part, is organized by national representatives of the sorority's headquarters. That is, colony candidates are assessed and interviewed by national officers and specialized recruitment team members. They're not going to pick the "scraggly leftovers and losers" to found their chapter. They are going to look for winners....the cream of the crop. If it were me applying to be in a colony, I'd be nervous to have to face an interview with national representatives.
