I spent a year and a half at U of H and at that time, there were maybe 6 local sororities and no nationals. All the locals were ethnically based--if you weren't Japanese, you weren't getting into Wakaba Kai, etc. And my friend at work was Chinese/Japanese and tried in vain to get into Teh Shih Cheh, the Chinese one.
I think that the hazing did them in. Even 25 years ago, few women wanted to pay for the "honor" of being harassed and humiliated in public for a whole semester.
