Yes, I do think the chapter messed up. If HQ thought that campus total was 150, that tells me that the chapter never updated them when it was changed (YEARS AGO).
I don't know if these NMs came from Panhellenic informal, either. If these women would have pledged a different chapter had they not gotten bids there, it is really unfair to the chapters below total. There are chapters on my campus struggling to stay afloat, because they do not have enough members to keep their houses full.
It was not caught earlier because there are no specific bid card procedures for informal rush. Girls who de-pledge this semester can rush in the fall and join any chapter they choose. This has been a problem for a long time, IMO, and I wanted to change it back when I was president, but it didn't affect enough chapters to get any attention.
However, I know for a fact that each chapter was told at the end of last semester how many they could COB. I know that if my HQ told me something than the Greek Advisor, I would figure out where the error was, not just ignore one of the two sources.
