Another reason that sophmores are heavily cut is that the classes need to be about the same. One of the chapters I advise took a huge nm class last fall, which was great, but now the sophmore class is over half of the chapter size. So why would we want to take a sophmore at this point when we already have so many? When they graduate, the chapter is going to be much smaller than they'd have been in a long time, so I really want them to take mostly freshmen right now to try and balance things out. Of course we aren't going ignore someone stellar, but if we take a sophmore she better be offering a whole lot to the chapter.

Good luck with rush!
