Capitalist vs. Socialistic
I heard once an interesting comparison between NIC Fraternity rush and NPC Sorority Rush.
The Fraternities rush capitalistically, the Sororities rush socialistically.
At most schools I've seen, the fraternities don't care at all (at least not officially) if one of the other fraternities don't manage to rush anyone in a given semester. And I've never seen any situation where fraternities put limits on their own rush to help keep another chapter alive.
OTOH, the sororities make sure that at least at the beginning that all of the sororities get the same number (or close) and only after everyone has gotten to that number is there any opportunity for additional recruitment.
Comments?
