West Chester has crazy big (for SSHE) pledge classes, like around 30. I don't know what they are doing/not doing that Greek life is so strong there.
It's definitely a money issue, plus I wonder what the Greek housing is like compared to dorms/other off campus housing. Not that any of what we had was palaces, but if all these students have known is suites where the most people they had to share the bathroom with was 1...I can see them bitching about the prospect of moving into a 14 person, 2 bathroom house. Obviously the alcohol factor plays into this as well. And of course the fact that Greek life is not a "must" for achieving a social life is part of it too.
For as much as the SSHE schools are investing in new buildings and construction, it seems like they are more "suitcase campuses" than ever. I lived in a crappy cement block dorm for 2 years and a teeny made over family house for 2 years...only went home when the school kicked me out for breaks...wouldn't change it for the world.

I'm the advisor for the AST chapter at West Chester. Most of the chapter have pledge classes of 35+ girls. Our last class was 38.
Most of the chapters here are 80+ girls. But, they are expanding to add a 9th NPC chapter in the fall of 2013 and maybe fall of 2014 (which would make 10 NPC chapters.)
