I am sure I missed something, but hopefully this answers a few of the questions in the thread so far.

Because having the chapter go under due to going against campus norms would result in even more missing revenue. Plus, according to most of the IU posters here, retention is better than at other similar schools. You don't need as large of pledge classes if your retention for 2011's pledge class is 80% as opposed to Big Honkin U who only retained 60% of the same year's class. Perhaps this is a case of that which is the most difficult to attain is more valued.
Obvi this is a very rosy view.
But as Titchou said this is not something that can happen overnight. If ythey started tomorrow to make steps to a full quota/total system, I'd say a 2020 complete implementation date would be optimistic.
