UF had a much smaller rush in IFC/Panhellenic and it even flowed over into the non-traditional Fraternities like Kappa Chi (Christian).

I know for instance Panhellenic Quota was 51 when it usually is about 20 girls higher.

Some examples of smaller Fraternity class sizes were...

Kappa Sigma took 21

TKE took 22

Sigma Chi took 23

Lambda Chi took 16

these are some examples. my chapter took 15, we're also much smaller and non-traditional.

This has been attributed to:

*UF cut Freshman addmission from 6,500 to around 4,500 to 5,000.

*UF brought in a much more academically focused crowd that was less receptive to any type of Greek Life.

*The coinciding Rush Weeks. Panhellenic went August 18-25. IFC went August 21-25.

(Weather was great during Rush)
