Depending on the particular rush, sororities here in Boston take between 20 and 30 (sometimes slightly more) during formal rush, and can take up to ceiling during informal. I think total right now is around 70 girls? (10 NPC sororities)
For the fraternities, it's all informal - we generally take around 15 a semester, and have 77 brothers right now (plus 11 pledges). I pledged with 20. We're the largest on campus, average size is b/w 35 and 40, ranging from 16 up to 77 (wide variety within there). 7 NIC fraternities recognized, plus 2 sub rosa, and one colony. Also, APO and KKPsi.
Boston University has 16,000 undergrads, and over 400 student groups and organizations . . . yeah, it's an activist campus. These groups range from housing groups to spectrum to a capella to SASSO (Students Against Stupid Student Organizations) . . . New England can be brutal - I definitely miss the midwest sometimes, especially when there's a protest against the CEO of Shell Oil speaking to the management senior class, across the street from a rally against US interests in Afghanistan . . . good times.
