They got who they wanted and that's all they want...no matter what anyone thinks.

I thought that an upperclass quota wouldn't "count" as far as national perception...that it was more just to help out upperclass PNMs. Like say quota is 50 and UC quota is 5...as long as ABC gets those 50 they're OK with they're HQ to get the Awesomesauce award or whatever.
I also was under the impression that UC quota didn't really figure in the math of PNMs finishing pref (or whichever round it's set after) divided by number of sororities...that they were "extra."
But if that is the case, maybe the HQs should impress on the women that excellent PNMs come in all classes, instead of fostering the "freshmen are best" mentality. (Then we wouldn't need a UC quota.)
