From the other side of things...

Commuter schools need donations also! Statistics don't lie and Greeks make up a LARGE percentage of donations... Why? Probably because our members on the whole tend to enjoy their college experience more and therefore are more inclined to go back and donate.

Some commuter schools go out of their way to welcome greek life. Mine is a good example. They support us wherever they can and otherwise stay out of the way.

Large schools -- at least for fraternities are not a sure thing. They are usually so loaded up with fraternities that it becomes difficult to start a new one. If you're a national organization with limited resources you will spend them where they're best spent. Recolonizing dormant chapters that have good alumni support and at schools where you are certain there is a demand for more GLO's -- regardless of size of school or financial status of members.
