every chapter at fsu has met quota for the past several years, according to my information. most of the sororities are above total. The houses typically house between 50-80 members-i can't imagine how they do dinners now-i would imagine they had to go to buffet service.

as at any university, colonization is expensive, but on a campus like fsu, where most of the sororities own their own homes and the homes are absolutely breathtaking,not to mention historical and rim the campus, it is very costly. to be competitive the sorority would have to eventually be housed. there are no lots available-the majority of the houses have been where they are for a loooooong time. there are some sorority houses that fraternities are currently renting that may become available for new groups in the future. i would imagine that sororities would much prefer for other sororities to rent their houses.

there are lots where the fraternities have built houses, but that is off campus and i would pity any sorority who built there. it would not be fun to be out there with the boys! too wild!

i hope that fsu(and uf) will consider an upperclasswoman quota. It seems they work out very well on the campuses that use them, but even if they use one, it will not be a panacea.

typically, colonies are given a few years to get their act together before another group is brought on and i agree with this philosophy. it does no good to bring on a colony/chapter if they are not given the chance to thrive.
