I spent a little time this morning on the IU GreekRank site and, wow, that school has problems. First of all, They have 24 sororities, including many that Mizzou would never consider having on campus, and still only about 50% of girls get into a house. That's because pledge classes are small - less than 50 in many cases. You don't pledge until second semester of Freshman year and the first semester GPA is what is used. I don't know about you, but I had an outstanding high school GPA with just one B in all of high school, plus AP calc, stats, physics, chem and the usual AP English, American History, Psych classes/tests, and still I only got a 3.75 my first semester at Mizzou. I'm not sure the first semester of college should carry that much weight. Plus, legacies mean nothing at IU unless the Mom is extremely active in alum activities and donates a BUNCH of money. That hardly seems fair and indicates legacies buy their way into chapters. Finally, their sorority members seem extremely sheltered because they don't live in apartments as upper classmen. I don't know about you, but when I'm 21 or 22 I would rather do my own shopping/cooking than have the sorority help do it for me. Plus, I LOVE living in a big house on East Campus with my sisters. Anyway, IU is hardly an exemplary Greek system. Seems kinda screwed up to me.
