I spent a week at my mama's after she had some minor surgery, and her house has become the repository of several yearbooks. Two of them happened to be old Pitt yearbooks (my two great-aunts?), and so I looked up the Greek sections. Here's the sororities listed, and the number of members that they had mentioned:

1940:

Alpha Delta Pi - 11
Alpha Epsilon Phi - 20
Beta Sigma Omicron - 11
Chi Omega - 9
Delta Delta Delta - 27
Delta Phi Epsilon - 8
Delta Zeta - 13
Kappa Alpha Theta - 18
Kappa Kappa Gamma - 22
Phi Mu - 14
Phi Sigma Sigma - 23
Theta Phi Alpha - 25
Zeta Tau Alpha - 28

1960:

Alpha Delta Pi - 20
Alpha Epsilon Phi - 23
Alpha Kappa Alpha - 9
Beta Sigma Omicron - 8
Chi Omega - 23
Delta Zeta - 19
Kappa Alpha Theta - 22
Kappa Kappa Gamma - 19
Phi Mu - 11
Sigma Delta Tau - 27
Sigma Sigma Sigma - 12
Theta Phi Alpha - 11
Zeta Tau Alpha - 21

Now, how correct those figures are, I don't know - I was just copying them out of the yearbooks. Also, I can remember some NPC National Executives telling us that before Pitt became a state-related university, it was considered "the" school for those people (especially Jewish, according to them) who had applied to Ivy League schools and for whatever reason, didn't get in or go to.
