It's interesting how many of these women joined top tier chapters...
...is it something with wealth that they already had obtained or something with their personality?
Theta at Missouri (I think, is pretty good I'm told), Founding Chi-O Chapter at Arkansas, and Pi Phi at Texas are all great chapters.

Not sure what you're getting at. Do you mean, "Did membership in a top tier chapter make these women great or did the top tier chapters select them because they knew these women would achieve great things?"

Nope, it's a stupid comment either way.

Well yeah...
But anyways, based on what I know about Kirsten Gillibrand, I'm excited she was chosen.

It is true that those are the best chapters on campus. Did the chapters greatness mold these great women or were they great before they became great and that's why they were chosen?

I'm sure they were probably "go getter" types BEFORE they were Greek. Most politicians have had that type of personality to begin with.
Greek Life is great and all, but I don't think it's something that determines whether one is going to be successful in politics (top chapter or not).
The greatness of a chapter doesn't really have the power to "mold" someone into a greater woman. I think you're giving Greek Life *gasp* too much credit here.
I mean, there are plenty of successful politicians who weren't Greek at ALL at their respective schools.

The new Governor of NC is also a KKG - Beverly Purdue was a Kappa at the University of Kentucky. She is the first female governor of NC.
