Alabama Quota
 
Does anyone have the official quota at Alabama? So far 80, 90 and 95 have been posted for freshmen. Has an official quota been determined by Panhellenic?

I heard KD took 95. Looks like they didn't take any upperclassmen. This came from momma whose daughter pledge today.

My daughter told me Alpha Chi Omega pledged 96!

My mistaken bid list came from this tweet from a business:

Monograms Plus In Vestavia Hills, AL · 1,213 like this

OK - - we have the UA BID LIST! It is at Monograms Plus - - but the University of Alabama has asked us not to release it to the public - - that we can only use it for "business purposes" - - and since we don't want to anger U of A, you will have to come by the shop to look at the list. If anyone wants to privately message the owner, we can check the list to tell you results. Sorry! - - That's the best we can do!!

I say DISLIKE - if UA can pass out names to businesses, they can post the list for the public...(not to mention contributing alumni!).

Since the quote from Kat Gillen - UA PH Adviser - says 95 I would suggest that 95 is correct.

Go by Monograms Plus and take a photo of the bid list!

Phi Mu took 95 freshmen plus 11 upperclass women for a total of 106!

I agree.

I will be so glad when the hippie bid day look is over and gone. Forever.

What's your issue with the cups?

I mean, it's Bid Day, these are official looking daytime photos, and there are parents, advisors, and alumnae there. I doubt there's "contraband" in them.

You know that and I know that. But they just give off too much of a party look for people who see the pictures and aren't Greek. It just kind of feeds the whole wild sorority women stereotype.

But I'm over 40 and square. Your mileage may vary. :)

I didn't understand that group on the balcony. Looks like most of the "actives" in most of the sororities were dressed very nicely.

I bet Bama is watching Arkansas's expansion closely. If it goes well doing a double colony there, Bama would be one campus where it might be tried again. I'm happy for their continued growth and success, but these numbers are crazy!

And I stand by 86% shows the girls going through are maturing a lot and getting over the whole Old Row or nothing thing (not that the Old Row chapters aren't lovely... you know what I mean).
