In my line of work,I meet a lot of college students and many think that if group ABC is cool on their campus, it's cool everywhere; if it's weak at their school it's weak everywhere. Not so! Everybody has their strong and weak chapters. We all have stellar chapters, we all have chapters that have folded. For instance, these fine sororities have folded on the campuses where I got my degrees:
Auburn: Delta Gamma, Zeta Tau Alpha (ZTA
later came back)
U. Of Arkansas: Alpha Chi Omega, Delta Gamma,
Kappa Alpha Theta, Phi Mu (twice)
Mississippi State: Alpha Chi Omega, Alpha
Delta Pi, Kappa Kappa Gamma
At my daughter's campus, Chi Omega and Delta Zeta have folded; my own group, Pi Beta Phi, lost chapters at South Carolina and Clemson.I guess what I'm trying to say is that you can't go by rumors that "XYZ is the best nationally" or even "XYZ is the best on this campus"! The only thing that matters is how you fit in with that particular group on that particular campus.
