However, I don't put too much value in those rankings because I have yet to see a primary source for those numbers.
During the new member period for Chi Omega, we were told that we were the largest in the nation. I will admit however, that I have no idea where that statistic comes from or whether it's based on number of chapters or something else.

I also recall that during recruitment, I was told that the ten largest sororities were all located at Virginia Tech.

I have heard the same about several sororities (ex: XYZ is the 4th largest sorority in the nation, or ABC is the largest sorority in the nation). I've seen them on FB groups, on Bid Day shirts, you name it.

Where does this info come from? Are there some super secret rankings I don't know about? lol. Or is it one of those "a bunch of people said it so it must be true" things?
