NIC
one can do all kinds of things with numbers.
The NIC has issued, sporadically, the average chapter sizes,
the official colonies, and now interest groups. And there are
likely some unrecognized, or sub-rosa or what have you.
I think Pi Kappa Alpha and SAE overwhelmingly have the largest
average chapter sizes. Kappa Sig is large, so is Sig Ep; the others, well, contact NIC. They would most likely be the most
accurate, figure-wise. Sororities have shot out of sight...
TKE continues to lead with number of active chapters, but then
they have the most, by far, inactive ones. The average size of
TKE chapters looks small 'cause of chartering on small campi with
small chapters. A bone of contention with many....
Alumni....some have been dead a long time. Lambda Chi, founded in 1909 and Sig Ep, 1901, are likely to have a higher
percentage of alums living, than, say, Deke or DU or SAE.
Colonies...are they reactivations, new charters or what? What's
an interest group? What other definitions? Are urban chapters
counted as one or how many, may have as many as ten schools
in "chapter."
Yes, things have changed. But we all love our groups.
