That's amazing that your formal is SOOOO formal, and then you will pledge a girl after 1 meeting in the spring. Not that I'm against it - just surprised. I would have thought you'd have the informational, invite them to A party, and then extend a bid. Do some chapters end up doing a more extensive spring recruitment where they bring girls over to the house and stuff?
One more UF question. How many chapters are more than a couple below total? I realize some will have lost a couple due to graduation or drop-outs, but how many need to pick up, say, 10 girls or more? The NPC Recruitment thread doesn't have every house's Fall numbers listed, and you never know if those are just unreported or intentionally left blank. Besides, quota this year =/= total this year.
And I also call BS on the forced to take members thing. It's either a lie to do harm or a worry that someone has turned into reality. I could see a girl pledging in the spring, not having a positive new member period for whatever reason and blaming it on being a spring pledge. Kind of like the bitchy (fill in the blank home town, minority, major, ...) girl who blames not getting pledged on the second half of that statement instead of the first. I don't buy it. The only downside to pledging in the spring instead of the fall is you missed out on a semester of sisterhood. But since you can't jump in my way-back machine, there's no point in fretting over that.
