We are super proud of our IU sisters, and they tell us that the IU greek community has been nothing but supportive of them
They initiated 60 women, which means they most likely took more than that as a pledge class. You always get a few drops when you have larger PCs. In addition, they initiated 5 women this fall following COB. I won't pin a retention rate on an exact %, but I would lean more towards ~85% than >90%. When you're looking at retention rates >95% at most chapters, that's something to keep an eye on over time. I'm happy that they're finding success, and I'd love for them to get that number up and keep their amazing women!
