We should all stop looking down on each other and ripping on each other. Theres going to be opposite views on this post and thats good for anyone wishing to debate.
Thats 20% thing goes for ANY group. My group is smaller than it normally is (under 20) and its still only about 20% of the people doing the work. It sucks but some people just have different reasons for doing stuff and some people do more work than others. Assuming that a large group isnt as good as a small one is still rude though. Each greek organization is unique in how they do things and how they run. I say that coming from a small, tight knit group of girls. Even when we were bigger we were tight. We have our own special ways of keeping in touch with each other because its impossible to see and talk to everyone all the time. It tends to work really well for us and I imagine the other orgs have their own ways of being sisters.
Plus, I was alwyas under the impression that a true sister in an org. with multiple chapters has a special bond with everyone that wears those letters. Just as I may not know all the alumni from my group really well, but I have a bond with them and would feel comfy talking to any of them. Thats what its all about! Phi Nu is my family and I think it rocks that I have such a big family now and no matter where I am I can call someone for help or a shoulder to lean on.
I just think if you wear your letters proudly and live by them you are going to have an understanding with anyone else that wears them.
