For example, the ones that basically hand out bids. I think a prime purpose of greek life is to seperate oneself from the rest of the campus. Not to seclude obviously, but rather to hold the group to a higher standard, and to do so requires the best students. If you're just letting anybody in, then you're not a fraternity, you're simply a random sampling of society.
I now understand and agree with you. If there are chapters out there doing absolutely nothing, I'd question their existence. But, you probably wouldn't have to because they'd be taking themselves down.

And, you know how I feel about handing out bids. I have no qualms about voting someone out who isn't right for my organization. It's a business deal, not a personal one.
