I personally would not have felt comfy in a chapter of 200...but then again, at the time, I picked the chapter of 30 over the chapter of 60 because I wanted a smaller chapter. That's just me. Some of our sisters HATED being smaller and wanted us to have 60+. To me, that's just personal preference. It's the same with people who choose a college with 1000 students over a college with 25,000 students.
I don't think 200 sisters can ALL know each other up and down the way we did, but you can still form lasting friendships within that chapter.
I do agree with what Erik is saying about retention - I don't see the sense in crowing over making quota every year if half those girls aren't even active by graduation. That applies to the North, South, East OR West...it's kind of hard to promote "sisterhood for a lifetime" if so many people can't even manage four years.
And you can ask several fraternities to mix with you at once. More choice that way.
