It also seems like it would be so much more important to attract a great group for that campus because they won't have the benefits of tradition, but in reality it would be hard to seeing as in most cases expansion recruitments are done after formal recruitment for the rest of campus and selections would be made by people who weren't that familiar with the standards for members on that campus.

It is my understanding that in addition to freshmen and sophomores, most sorority colonies actively recruit juniors and seniors (those who for what ever reason, did not pledge) for the colony's first new member classes. Thus the number of freshman and sophomores are similar to the numbers in the other chapters. And when possible, the same with juniors and seniors. And for what it is worth, juniors and seniors often have more campus experience (i.e. familiar with the campus) and may already hold leadership positions campus wide. So they can be quite desirable.
