At smaller schools with lower total, it's very common for all chapters to participate in COB. At campuses like this there's no stigma about COB and even the strongest/"top" chapters will have COB events (but usually with fewer spaces to fill).
A system like this usually develops because all or most of the chapters are at or near total. Also, the panhels are really flexible with total, adjusting it depending on the strength of sorority membership numbers from year to year. If the number of women in the chapters at these schools all hover around total, chapters never really get the chance to go very far over total during FR. With women transferring/going off campus/graduating each semester, it usually leaves all the chapters with at least a couple spaces to fill. It's very hard to stay above total for a long time in this kind of system (but relatively easy to stay at total).
At larger schools with more women going through recruitment, this kind of system is far less common.
