And as far as alums from top tier schools being more effective leaders on a national level and making the GLO "better" - well, we just saw an alum from a top tier school basically saying she wouldn't give a shit if her school's whole system croaked. Would you pick her for an alum position over someone who went to Western Illinois simply because she went to Brown? (Munchkin, this is not picking on you - just using a very apropos example) Maybe this is true of fraternities, but it's not true of sororities.

I think people care if the system croaks and I think they would be supportive, but I don't know alumni of too many schools that think that greek life is the end all, be all of their undergraduate experience.
Truthfully, I don't know what it's like to tail-gate, I don't know how it feels being with all your alumni in the same stadium and using the same cheer, and I also don't know what it's like to be in a huge 200 man chapter and have so much of my student life center around being Greek. Thus my experience and loyalty, as it is for many others, is to the school.
Regarding grades at the chapter, I have a feeling that people won't push them as much at a school like Princeton. It's not saying that the standard should be thrown out, but perhaps GPA plays less of a role on this campus and perhaps there already is a standard - entrace into the school. But then again, I'm not in a sorority and I don't know if these are things you girls do at every chapter across the nation.
