If there is only a difference of about 37 men between these two campuses, and UT has 22 fraternities in comparison to 23 at Wazzu; but there is a difference of 22318 students over all, I just don't understand where your comment came from. With numbers that close I am trying to figure out what was behind your comment. Until I looked I wouldn't have guessed they'd have been so similar in number.

Our large, top fraternities have much more than 70 members. I would say the numers are similar because of selectiveness. Our enrollment is going to be aver 40,000 this coming year, have to be picky. I just figured a school such as Washington St. with a fairly large enrollment would have more per chapter.

SigKapCoug would be more of an expert on this, but Wazzu does attract more urban Seattle types which is part of the increased enrollment at the Pullman campus. There have also been some recolonizations over there as of late, and I don't think everyone is currently housed. We're nearby and have an undergraduate enrollment of 9,503 with Greek membership at 1,469. However, there are more rural/small town students at UI (though there is an urban Boise contingent), but overall we're more conservative than Wazzu. We also have all the chapters housed, and twice the amounts of fraternities than sororities. I am sure one huge difference is that a chapter here (and possibly at Wazzu) can change their reputation pretty quickly and that is highly unlikely at UT. I have only been here a couple years and who was top dog when I looked at the school isn't now, but it is moreso for the men than the women.

Yeah you are right. The top houses have been so for a long while. Same with the Sororities.

? maybe it boils down to acting like slobs then they are slobs, but the problem is, they are Greeks and it reflects on ALL GREEKS!.

They are ergo, We are!
