In my case, I'm a big fish in a "medium" pond, and I've enjoyed it. Because we aren't TOO large, I was able to become involved with the chapter right off the bat. I worked my way up quickly and eventually became involved with several on campus organizations, and with my org's National and Regional boards. I've also initiated several changes to policies and procedures that are still in effect, so I'm happy to have had the opportunity to do that.
I've met people who are in "big pond" chapters who can't recall names of other people in their own chapter. That's crazy to me; I don't know if I could deal with not knowing my own brothers. The only thing that I would enjoy about "big pond" chapters would be having more manpower for big scale events.
