They were discussing fraternity colonization in the example given though.

As for sororities . . . it really does all depend on the campus. Looking through the yearbooks here it's easy to see that groups have switched places. Two groups that are easily "middle tier" now were tops on campus in the 1950s. One of the groups that had a reputation for being party girls in the 1980s now has the complete opposite rep and a completely different spot on the "tier." The group that is now the smallest was the biggest on campus ten years ago. At our campus it isn't strange at all for groups to cycle through the "tier."

The same is not to be said about, say, the University of Texas, where the tiers have been pretty solid with minimal moves up and down the ladder since at LEAST the 1960s.
