Interestingly, I've seen the acquisition of a house dramatically change the tone of a chapter overnight. Dues go up to pay for house and parlor fees, people leave because they don't like the change/can't afford the increase, and the perceived prestige of a house attracts more women in the next recruitment. I can't speak for everywhere and I'm not, but that happened quite a few times on my campus.

Same with Tulane. Something (some things?) told ZTA that the situation wasn't going to work out. Maybe it was numbers or scholastics or something we haven't dreamed of. *Zeta is there, we're not, so I wouldn't begin to make assumptions about what happened.*
Which is why you really shouldn't have posted this little tale (that I'm sure all 3 groups really appreciate having all over the internet) in this thread - it's like you're intimating ZTA bowed out for the same reason, because the girls sucked, which is exactly the conception most people in this thread were trying to negate. Kudos.

adpiucf, I completely agree - that doesn't just happen with big multimillion $ houses, it happens at all types of schools. Sometimes the acquisition is positive, sometimes negative. Again, it's just simply a matter of timing and who is in the various roles when.

No, I didn't hint at that. I explicitly said that it could be for a number of reasons, some of which had nothing to do with the girls. And the stuff about the 3 groups is all over the internet, still to be found if you know where to look.
