I echo this sentiment 100%. As someone who had friends in so many other chapters, I know I could have easily been happy in the majority of the chapters in addition to my own. PNMs get their heart set on a chapter for really silly reasons (I like their colors, my orientation guide was an XYZ, my best friend is an ABC at another school, etc.) and don't give the rest of the groups a chance. I honestly believe that most of the PNMs at IU would make friends and find a home in about every one of the chapters at IU. Each chapter there has something good to offer.
