Actually, it does. It sounds like the problem was in the communication prior to recruitment concerning strict release figures enforcement? When you do the math (DISCLAIMER--I don't know if any of these figures are correct for Kent State, just going with the info hannahgirl had in her post!)
There are seven sororities listed on the Kent State site. If they are all still participating for 3rd round, then you take 113/7 to get your quota range. Let's say quota range ends up around 14-16 for rounding and such. If you had to cut 56.5 (half of that 113), you'll have 56.5 remaining. That's 3+ times a possible quota of 16. If only 6 sororities are participating, then QR is around 17-19; 19 x 2.5 = 47.5 invited to Pref with 57 = 3x possible quota.
I know I'm probably off with the numbers and the next round may not be Pref, but with the new system you should be
inviting 2 to 2.5 times quota for Pref. Go on the high end and you'll get 16 x 2.5 = 40.
