While the NPC numbers show membership up slightly during the past few years, the problem is that the enrollment figures at those same institutions have risen substantially. As an example, today Big Ten schools have an average of 14.5 NPC groups. In the late 1960s that number was 19.5 That is a 25% decrease in chapters while enrollments were nearly doubling! Even in the SEC schools, probably Greekdom's most popular area, the average number of NPC groups on each campus dropped from 13 to 11.8 -- at a time when the student population nearly tripled. It cannot be healthy when a continually smaller percentage of students determine that fraternity or sorority membership is of value to them. By the way, the fraternity figures are far worse than the soririties'.
