I agree, to a point. Let's be honest, not everyone is appropriate for the Greek system. Then it becomes an assortment of clubs rather than selective membership organizations.

However- when more than twice as many are interested in a colony than they have room for, it makes me wonder. Are those numbers typical? It makes sense that a colony doesn't just accept everyone (mutual selection and all) and I know some will go for a colony that wouldn't go through formal, but if there are that many women that are interested chances are a good portion of them would make great sisters somewhere. No we will never solve the issue of not matching everyone- and that's okay.

I obviously don't have access to the stats so my data points are limited, but both PNM & PPT are sophomores and based on others' comments it sounds like there's a large disadvantage at going through there as an upperclassmen. Maybe an upperclassmen quota is something that would help out here.

PNM & PPT... best wishes to you both.
