Well being from one of the "smaller" GLOs I would have to say that I don't think the # of chapters you have has anything to do with how strong an organization you are. I mean sure maybe XO with around it's what 200 or so chapters has more money to play around with than Phi Sig who has 111 chapters. But I don't really think money is the main problem unless it comes to being able to buy a house or not. I don't know what can help smaller orgs get a few more chapters... all I know is as long as we do get STRONG chapters, no matter if they're in the deep south where they'll most likely be strong no matter what since people just WANT to go greek there for some reason, or if they are at a school that doesn't have that strong a greek system as long as people are joining the chpaters that do exist, smaller orgs are not going to die out, and I kind of take offense to people who are saying that they think that smaller orgs might "die out" with out even knowing the health of our national orgs. It is a good discussion question from the standpoint of wanting to get more chapters out there for smaller groups, but don't assume if we don't that we'll die out.
