Not necessarily directed to the OP, but if the percentage of Greeks really is that small, how/why on earth is another national group colonizing? That seems extreme, even for the Northeast where chapters are a fraction of the size of SEC chapters.

Not wanting to out her, but let's say she's talking about NYU. The Greek population versus the total student population would be very small, but the system there seems to be strong and growing. And this would also be a good example of "what's with the goofy decision to make girls dress like they own shares of stock in Lily Pulitzer?" If NYU had made that dress code decision a lot of perfectly sophisticated, good match for sorority life type girls would be turned off.

Thanks for understanding. This is exactly the situation I found myself in. So I was really taken aback when the PNMs were asked to do this. I did try to conform and find outfits that fit the dress code and that I felt comfortable in, but kept getting frustrated with shopping since what was being asked of us isn't really sold in my area.

Again, without saying too much, this would also explain why we're getting a new chapter on campus.
