Not to mention the women who transfer out of school completely after initiating, and then end up on a campus where their GLO is a terrible fit, or isn’t there at all, and they lose out on 3 1/2 years of collegiate Greek life because of one semester.
Although I think the less demanding pledge programs are probably as much to blame for the things you mentioned as first semester freshman eligibility.
