Plus, if the new chapters want to bid up to average chapter size, that would mean 4 chapters times 350ish which is roughly 1,400. That is a whole lot, especially because these colonies would want to be extremely selective. Not to mention that that many colony members could overwhelm the system. That is a lot of folks who don't know the ropes all at one time.

I'm all for expansion at Ole Miss (and lots of other places), but I think biting off too much at once will inevitably cause one or more of the new chapters to fail. That would be tragic considering the cost to colonize.
even though they had expanded the houses, they still don't hold everyone. Many are land locked with no room to build what they need. the idea when they do an expansion is to hopefully lower quota/total enough that current bricks and mortar can accomodate the chapters. Not everyone can build an Alabama McMansion.
