seriously. I had a pretty bad asthma attack at 2am. Sat here thinking do I call 911, the boyfriend (who I'd left asleep at his house 30 min prior) or tough it out. I toughed it out.

Any word on how SC's recruitment went this year? Did most houses meet their quotas? Any surprises? Thanks!

Westcoastgal,
See posts #13 and #19 above.

Thanks Football Fan. I missed seeing your previous posts. I am glad that all the houses made their quotas despite the deep recession.Do you happen to know which house went over quota by 11?

My friend, who has graduated but is still loosely connected to her chapter, said Theta has 59.

Numbers at SC
 
Tri Delta had 62. Perhaps AmyCat can give us the DG number.

I don't know if you received the memo but, since I am an alum of both USC and UCLA, I feel that I can add my two cents here. This board is designed to support PNMs going through recruitment and to support Greeks and their chapters. This is not a venue for childish rivals' rant(s), tantrums or injections of Go....whoever.

Have you ever noticed that women congratulate pledges that didn't pledge their GLO? It's called class. Learn from it.

Calm your ass down
 
It's part of attending one of the two schools so deal with it theirs nothing wrong with a little rivalry.

I guess that you REALLY didn't get the memo:

This isn't about UCLA versus USC. This is about sororities. Did it occur to you that if you pledge you have sisters at USC?

Punctuation is your friend. Use it. Correct spelling is your friend (their versus there).

And, when talking to adults the phrase, "Calm your ass down", again without punctuation might not be appropriate. And lest you think that it is appropriate to address an adult in that manner, I feel sorry for the adults in your life.

punctuation and profanity and politeness

As another poster (thank you, Ellebud) articulated, remarks that are not germane to the topic and are discourteous to others are not appreciated; nor do those types of remarks and posters need to share their illiteracy and bad manners with others. Profanity has no place on these boards.

It is with pride and pleasure that I congratulate all those PNMs who found sisters, regardless of letters. My college experience was greatly enriched by my membership in a greek letter organization. And I have found sisters of all letters throughout my life.

To "Bruin27": I find it curious that the University of California system has not improved your use of English grammar and vocabulary (that is, assuming that you are matriculating at UCLA). Having graduated from a UC school, I must say that your writing and punctuation skills do not reflect the level of education that I have come to expect from university students and graduates. You might consider reading Eats, Shoots & Leaves by Lynne Truss and then you can move on to Strunk and White (which was required in my high school English class).

We go from 5 to 2

At my school (also PAC 10) we go from 5 to 2- that was a Panhellenic suggestion. Maybe due to the new RFM's? I know we even had a vote on it in the spring and Nationals was very involved in how we voted. It does make it a little crazy, but the majority of groups make quota (this year all but 1 did) A lot of girls drop out because they don't get invites for "the chapter" they want.
