There are PNM's who want to join a struggling house because they see it as a call to action; they will be the leader who will turn that house around. And there are other PNM's who want the "prestige" of joining an "established" chapter for the "reputation." There's nothing wrong with either; it's a personal preference.
With that in mind, I think the fraternities could do with some more structure, and that sorority formal recruitment would be a lot more comfortable if the no-frills credo was fully embraced, and the party atmosphere was a lot more casual-- based more on conversation than skits and decorations.
