Re: How stupid is this

I go to a fairly small school with chapter's quota being around 60/65-ish. We've always done recruitment as the three-day weekend kinda deal.
Well this year they want to try to increase our quota so they are going to have two weeks of recruitment. Which doesn't sound like a bad idea, cause everyone ususally goes home during the weekend. But every chapter loses some people due to graduation. Unfortunately my chapter is losing a lot (17 to be exact) and here comes the bad part....Panhellenic is wanting to take all the girls going through and split them into two groups. So if by some chance like 200 girls go through then this means we could have 100 girls at one party.This sounds completely insane to me. But they seem to think it will work. How are we going to do that? We will have like 46 girls with 100 PNMs???
Does anyone else have recruitment like this?
I don't think they mean they want 100 girls at one party. That would be stupid and would mean all the other sororities are sitting around twiddling their thumbs while all the girls are at other sororities' parties.

I think (hope) what they mean is that they will take all the girls that sign up and 100 will go through the first week, 100 will go through the second week. That means you will have 2 quotas and most likely fewer people getting cross cut.

Also, when you are saying "chapter's quota" I think what you actually mean is chapter total.

This actually is kind of a good idea, except it blows for the chapters having to do things twice.
