If you wonder why certain houses fall higher in the social pecking order, you should take a look at their size. This has far more to do with why one is ranked higher than the "quality" of their members. The frats that are considered "better" tend to have more members (except for a few that are rebuilding like Sig Chi, TKE and DU who will be back to where they were a few years ago pretty quickly). The top half of houses DChi (97 bros), BSB (77), Sig Chi (41), Pike (96), Acacia (114), ATO (98), Lambda (70), Sig Ep (83), DU (44), TKE (49), Sig Pi (77), Phi Psi (68), AGR (101), Phi Who (63), TDX (75), FIJI (80), Kappa Sig (93), Far Sig (62) and Chi Phi (78) have more members than the other 16 chapters which go as low as Treehouse with just 12 members. This group of chapters pretty much matches the number of sororities on campus so it makes for easy pairing. Since the ranks are based on socials and since the average sorority has 140 members, it makes sense that these are the houses that sororities prefer to social with. Honestly, 140 girls don't want to show up at a party with a chapter of 22. The more popular chapters have more members to create relationships with. That is not to say that the other houses are in some way inferior. Some people prefer a smaller more intimate chapter than these bigger ones. Some people would prefer to have a social with 50 people between their chapter and a smaller dance troupe than being packed in with 400. That is all okay. There is very little difference between the "quality" of the men or women. It really is all about size. Let's stop acting like people in these larger chapters are somehow "better" than the guys in the smaller houses. There is a reason that the social experience is different and it has nothing to do with looks.
