Everyone is yelling that the sorority women like their elite status and that's why they don't want to change. I would say that there are women out there rushing only to gain that status and if it diminished, so would their interest.
And if you're reading this thread don't get your panties in a bunch thinking I'm talking about you or your daughter because I'm not...unless, of course, I am, and that's something you have to be honest with yourself about.

I honestly don't think it would diminish the girls going through. Look at Alabama and Ole Miss where being greek is still seen as incredibly elite: they don't all live in the houses and interest in their recruitments is growing, not waning.
If you want to compare to a more similar school, I think Illinois is a really good comparison to IU and they're doing just fine. I think the elitist mindset kicks in once PNMs become new members, but I don't think it's as much of a thing before they actually join.
