You know what? I think colony members play the biggest part in whether the group fails or succeeds. I watched a colony pledge girls just for the sake of getting girls, and from the outside, it appeared as though they took everyone and anyone. That may not have been the case, but that's what it looked like and for a while a lot of people looked down on them. A lot of the pledges left and one of them said it was because they felt like they were rushed through everything and misled into joining when they didn't realize what was going to be required of them. Now, I realize I might sound snobby, but it's true--if you look like you just want girls to boost your numbers, people won't take you seriously. My big sis used to tell me stories all the time about when our chapter was in the process of recolonizing, over 200 girls showed up at the interest meetings and ultimately only 23 were selected to pledge the colony. The reason? As our chapter advisor told us over and over, "Quality builds quality."
