I wasn't referring to those numbers. I was referring to the numbers that can be found with the grades listed for Spring of 2006.

Gotcha, didn't see those

They have deferred (sp?) recruitment, so all chapers just picked up about 15-20 (I have NO clue what quota was) new ladies in January, also. There are groups under total (one I know is way under total, but is recieving help from their nationals to rebuild)

The main reason for the interest meeting is because of a group of 40-60 women who have formed an on campus interest group wanting to start a new chapter. They have worked really hard and so far contacted all the right people (NPC area advisors, Exec members of current chapers on campus, local alumni from other NPC groups, members of other NPC groups at other NC state universities.) They sought me out as a local ZTA Alumni, with a tie to Appalachian, and that is how I heard this news. They seem to have really built a big buzz around themselves on campus. From what I have heard Panhellenic at App is going to be voting whether or not to open for expansion this semester. The ladies are looking at several NPC chapters, including ZTA, and Tri-Delta.

I don't know if it will, but I hope it pans out well for them! Of course I will keep you all posted. Everyone let me know if you have any info! ZL.

That's cool that they're forming this way, and hopefully it works out for them This seems a case where expansion is probably a good idea, IMO, but my experience with it is slim to none.
