I think this hits the nail on the head. If being Greek is something that you can choose if you want but there is no pressure to do, it seems that only the people who really want to do it and be committed to it join. I'd rather have a chapter of 30 committed sisters who stick around for 4 years than a chapter of 150 where the membership is constantly changing because people keep quitting.
