That was not the best written article or maybe I'm just tired from work.
Another issue facing Iowa is probably cultural. The mid-west, in my opinion, is not a hot-bed of greeks in the same way the south and east coast are. Rush, in the MN, WI, IA region, is not built up in HS. Of my graduating class of 350, only 5 or 6 people joined glos. The culture does not tend toward it. Additionally, the people I know that went to Univ. IA went with a number of other people they knew. They had social groups in place when they started and thus probably did not see the point (plus many went home often). I know people go to college with friends elsewhere, but I think the lack of GLO culture combined with already having a network creates a situation where some just don't go greek.
Just my random thoughts though
