My school is small (about 3500 undergrads) and there are 9 NPC sororities. Less than 200 girls go through spring recruitment, and usually fall recruitment is less than 100. Spring recruitment is larger than fall because then freshmen are allowed to go through. My chapter has 32 members right now (we're the 2nd smallest on campus). Here's how the last 3 pledge classes looked:
Fall 2000 (mine): 5
Spring 2001: 13
Fall 2001: 8
Even the larger chapters here don't get much more than that. 18 is the largest pledge class I've heard of here. I can't even imagine 50 or more! But personally, I like it the way it is here. I wouldn't want over 200 sisters because I like personally knowing all of mine.
