Their pledge classes were usually at least 1/2 juniors, and so every other year or so 1/2 of their chapter would graduate at the same time.

2. Under the old system, unless the (U) women going through were totally AMAZING, they didn't stand a shot at getting a good bid, and many wound up dropping out around day 2/3. Now, under the new system, many more (U) women stay in through the entire process and are more evently distributed throughout all chapters.

Because of the recently instituted (U) quota, chapters are getting larger, more women are 'going Greek,' and we're able to have more impact on our campus & community. But, there are just issues that come along with growing...growing pains, so to speak...and I'm just trying to figure out how best to handle them. I really don't think that eliminating (U) quota will help, because we'll just go back to the way things were before...fewer (U) women going through and an even smaller number getting bids to the better chapters. The institution of a (U) quota, gives (U) women an 'even playing field' but it affects total and COBing. So we just need to find a way to make things even and fair for everyone.

I asked what is wrong with the system you have in place now, not the old system. You have yet to explain what is uneven or unfair.
