I believe our old house had around 25 spots to fill. Some of the officers (president, rest of exec board, property manager, and some of the other ones that I don't remember) were required to live-in.
We had a live in requirement of 1 year, but there were some exceptions (owned house, lived with parents close by, RA, can't remember the other ones.)
The live-in requirement was only really enforced when there were spots to fill. Many times girls had already lived their 1-year requirement but chose to stay 2 or even 3 years just because they wanted to... so as long as the house was full, we didn't bust out our list of people who had not fulfilled their requirement. I remember only one time that we had to do that, but luckily we had some sisters step up to the plate and live in the house that prevented what could have become a crazy situation.
I think it is so much easier to get the newer girls to live in the house when they are younger and just joined the sorority because the older people have already done the sorority thing for a few years and want a place of their own. And as much fun as it can be live in the sorority house, its hard to move from having your own room & own apartment to moving in with 24 other girls.
