houses/capacity/insurance
Let me throw this out...in my home state we had houses to take
care of almost all...TKE at Emporia, 60 in house; TKE at KU, 88;
SAE, K-State, 80, SAE at KU, 90, TKE at Iowa State, 112; Beta at MU, over a hundred; many of the "old Big 8" schools had houses
well in excess of 60 capacity....these figures are quite old, from
my memory and the 50s. A pledge class of 40 was not uncommon. On large campi, transfer members were often ignored, and often didn't affiliate. TKE had over 40 at KU in '57
And these figures pale when we think of the behemoths in FL
and some southern schools. The weenie size chapters now in
New England plus the miserable extension schools where there is no house or only a dozen live in....they do indeed drain the others, and I know I am manking some of you angry.
While I am at it, if you cannot support or will not rush, get out!
And the crappy little outfits with no house, under fifteen men, how can you call yourself a fraternity? Get real.
Now, Tom, how's that for codger-isms? LOL
