Frat rankings, the cold truth

I've seen many posts about how certain frats are "on the rise" after their biggest parties have been good, and while that can definitely indicate whether or not they're a good frat, one massive party does not mean that a frat is on the rise. Other factors include PC (quality, not quantity), sorority relations, and how their other parties that don't include their "biggest" are. Just because a frat isn't on the rise doesn't inherently mean they're bad or irrelevant, it just means they're where they're supposed to be.
