I think adpiucf hit the nail on the head. The young ones think everyone over the age of 25 is ancient.

I'm sorry this didn't work out for you.

And for the most part, everyone over the age of 25 thinks that 18-22 year olds are way too young.

There's a HUGE gap even between your early 20s and late 20s. Although you may not see it now, if you were in a chapter, you'd probably notice it more.

I think it's just one of those things that is weird, so nobody wants to do it and be the weird chapter. A WRC takes a 25-year-old, and suddenly tongues are wagging that they are so desperate for members, they took a 25-year-old.

Even if there is nothing wrong with taking an older member, and she'd be a great sister, it's the same as taking an openly lesbian member or a married member. On some campuses, it's just fodder for the gossip mill and chapters want to avoid that.
