Well said, especially this comment: "In reality, actives should see new chapters as a blessing and a way to get total numbers down." Exactly. When houses have 400 members, I don't think it's easy to have a close sisterhood. I think the smaller chapters have an advantage due to less numbers - you might actually know your sisters. Variable Quota is also a huge help because without it, the biggest chapters would be at 500-600 and the smaller ones would get so small that they might fold. We had to have something to help balance things out. I think ZTA would be a great addition to OM because it has a strong national organization and as posted earlier, lots of local alums which are key to making a colony successful. As for the comment that "State's chapter is poor so that would affect how it does here" (I'm paraphrasing), I disagree. That might have been the case years ago when OM was mostly Miss. students (and they might be influenced by a chapter's reputation at another Miss. school), but now we have girls from everywhere, many who have a very positive viewpoint of ZTA from chapters in their home states. If ZTA were to re-colonize, they'd likely bring actives in from several chapters to rush, not just State. If your'e threatened by a new chapter on campus, then that's really sad. \n\n\n\n\n
