I agree it would have to be all or nothing. I'm not familiar with the campus, but I feel like it's unlikely that groups would be willing to give up their houses.

But if XYZ has a snazzy new gym, parking garage, Starbucks on the first floor, and concierge service. Sign me up for XYZ. If I get Starbucks and a gym, I don't care who else lives there. If I was 19 and it was cute fraternity sharing the building, even better.

You got it - that's the culture shift that needs to happen. PLUS add in that the sorority houses are OLD, with sleeping porches. And the new options have single rooms, semi-private bathrooms, etc. And are right around the corner from everything on University Blvd. This ain't the SEC, small town MS or Bama; we're talking lots of PNMs from California and they are into change, the latest thing, etc. Tradition is what happened last year. Not last century, or the one before that.

It's gonna happen. It's a matter of time. Unless the pendulum takes a huge swing in the opposite direction, and the NM classes drop back down into the 50-60 range. Which they were five short years ago.
