Because anecdotes totally make it true.

You want to conduct an informal greek survey to see how campus specific it is? Everyone with access could post the grade reports, and we could see what the trends were, if there were any.
I kind of doubt we'll get much participation though.

Understandably so.
Universities and other entities do these types of comparisons for a reason. You all typically do them because you need a hobby.

Hey, no need for the snark. I just related my experiences as a member of an NPC chapter where there were a lot of Art History majors. The workload my sisters and I had wasn't nearly as intense as some of my NPHC friends and family members, who for whatever reason, decided to focus on different fields of study.

It's also true that NPCs tend to have much higher member numbers than NPHCs - of course we will have more marketing and communications majors. We have more members. I would be interested to see percentage-wise how that goes, though. My chapter has quite a lot of science majors or pre-med, which are very difficult and time consuming.
