I am originally from the Northeast and go to school in the South. From my experiences, I can say that most of my friends who knew that they wanted to go Greek went to school in the South. They typically went to HBCUs or schools where the Greek chapters were large and very much in the forefront of campus life. Could the "decline" be due to the migration of Northeastern students to Southern schools and HBCUs (which are typically in the South)?
