Thank you, you have clarified the teminology but I am still not seing the reason.

Total is a cap placed on total membership, why is there a cap on total membership? I would wager good money that there are groups that could havea lot more members if they weren't restricted.

Also, why have quota or formal rush? If quota is 30 but 40 girls really want to join XYZ and XYZ really wants them, thats 10 girls that can't be a member of that group. That hardly seems fair.

I used the example of the last name because if you have 20 really good candidates, any of which you would be glad to have as a member, then something as little as when they came up during chapter discussion could be a factor in a decision.

Also, wasn't it an LSU thread or another southern School that said they had hundreds of unplaced women? Surely they couldn't all be undesirable? And I don't see that school raising Total.


Oh well, maybe its just a girl thing.
