Maybe out of state students have enough knowledge about the Greek system to make this type of informed decision, but I don't imagine a ton of in state girls think about this when deciding to go to IU. The greek system is only about 23% of the student body.

This is true for the majority of in-state students because I did not know anything about sorority recruitment (which is my own fault, I should have done research if it was important to me) at IU when choosing to go there. If I had, I might have picked a different college.

Also another sorority (Sigma Kappa) is going to colonize in 2016 so that will help a little with numbers. From talking to friends in sororities, they all want the system to change, but don't know what they can do about it.
