I struggle to understand why some campus cultures are so brutal. It's a part of human nature to get caught up in a survival of the fittest mindset and a desire to be seen as the top. But man......some campus locations just eviscerate newer or smaller chapters.
About 7 years back at SDSU, we were dying over the gigantic pledge classes. At one point, our Gamma Phi Beta chapter was so huge that we had to purchase extra folding tables and chairs to set up in the *living room* just to make enough seats for all of the members for Monday night formal dinner. The girls were overwhelmed and we had members up to the rafters. We needed a new chapter on campus and we were relieved when one finally came on (DZ). We were GLAD to have that new chapter on campus!
