I don't think that there is a public "list" out there of which Universities and Colleges are using the old or the new method. From what I have heard both on GC and throughout my International Organization, the Panhellenics that have switched over to the new release figure method have for the most part greatly benefited from the change. A couple of schools modified it on a local level, and the results were not as desirous.

Most large Universities and those with competitive recruitments have switched to the new release figure method. Others are following suit, though for some reason I vaguely remember seeing something about how only half of the Panhellenics across the country had implemented the new method by this past fall. Not sure about the accuracy of that though.

As someone else mentioned, the quota range aspect of the new method is quite helpful. Scary at first, but it works nicely when applied appropriately and you use quota additions.
