Whoa wait what? 53 Greek organizations? With a total of 1470 members among them? Even with the smaller numbers common to the Northeast, that doesn't sound right at all.

I actually counted 55 on their website, but I could be off by one or two. Either way, 1470 divided by 53 is 27-28 members (average) per chapter. That doesn't sound too outrageous to me. And it does come to about 10% of their student body, as was mentioned.

Some may have memberships you can count on one hand. This is not uncommon among MCGLO's and even some of the D9 chapters.
