I agree to a certain extent. But the outside influences also include women feeling more settled, making friends in their dorms, and finding other clubs/social outlets. At MSU we're not talking Alabama or Ole Miss environments. Greek life is not the be all and end all that it is at other schools. It doesn't even measure up to some other Big Ten schools in terms of a "must do" activity. So if recruitment gets dragged out, the women start to get settled into their college life, and they are less than greatly enthused about their invites... You start to lose people.
