Like many things, RMF doesn't exist in a vacuum. There are lots of other issues that weren't there 30 years ago, like shortened pledge programs, economic issues, tightened risk management and more emphasis on maintaining larger chapters (or at least on all the chapters being the same size).
The only thing that I think is really of "this generation" is the "OMG I've been in the sorority 2 weeks and I'm still not BFFs with everyone and I still don't fit in!!" I certainly didn't expect to be best friends with everyone after such a short period of time. Then again, this also doesn't exist in a vacuum - you have to factor in increased social interaction online and things like that. It's hard to tell which came first, the chicken or the egg.
