release figures method...tell me what you think!
 

We are a small campus, 5 sorority houses, 5 frats. Not a big greek community at all, just no interest. Would this work? All houses of all groups are no more than 25 members.

Feedback?

Unless there was a huge problem with one house being hugely popular with a lot of women they cut at the last minute dropping out at the end /or one chapter with only 5 women or some similar situation I wouldn't think it necessary.

agree.

This thread should be moved to the recruitment forum.

Is there a post missing? :confused:

What are the totals for each group? When you say "the houses" do you mean the chapters or the actual physical plant?

On the bright side, this wasn't a TMI post...

My campus had 3 sororities, and we had no release figures. We had three rounds- everyone could come to first round. The sororities voted to invite women back, the recruitment counselors brought the list of invitations around to each PNM, and the PNM either accepted all parties she was invited to or crossed off those she didn't want to return to. Chapter sizes were around 30, quota between 6-12 depending on the year.

We also struggled with low participation, and wound up moving to an informal recruitment method the year after I graduated (2005). I believe the new system is that all three chapters are open for X period of time, and you have to visit all three for a minimum of 10 minutes to be eligible to receive future invites. Similar invite system but the parties are much more casual with no specific timing, just drop in & out at your leisure. From what I've heard, this has not changed the numbers significantly, although the err on the side of less participation.
