Sorry I haven't jumped in on this one yet...been busy w/ school...
It would be suicide for ADPi or ZTA to try to come back on because they were not successful the first time and that would always be hanging over their heads...

I'm not sure that a new organization could survive...the others are sooo established and many girls are legacies.

Truthfully...most girls going through have a sorority in mind...now once they get in the rush process they often change their mind, but they are all well aware of the reputation of each group...and all of the current chapters are so strong that I'm not sure a new one could stand a fair chance.

I agree that there are way too many members in the sororities at Ole Miss. It is very difficult to learn everyone's name...most people don't know everyone's name in their sorority...let alone getting to know them. Living in the house helps...but then again most of the houses only hold up to 50 or 60.

The new way of doing rush this year helped more girls get in a house, but it also increased the numbers. They go up every year. When I pledged quota was 60, I think. And this year when I am graduating it was 86, I think -with most houses getting around 91 new pledges. Still even with the numbers I don't think a new house could make it. Even if it were to be one that is strong in the south.
