My chapter actually went through this whole ordeal on housing two years back. Many other sororities have been going through the same thing too. Which prompted the school when building the new houses on campus to decrease the amount of rooms. I dont want to go into specifics though bc well it was really an inside problem that was taken care of.
Total overall on campus had gone down with the increase in the amount of sororities since they built the houses and such. Plus, we had been taking a lot of sophomores. This was creating a problem bc most of them already had apartments when they joined so they didnt want to give these up.
Now we tell pnms during recruitment straight up that we have a housing policy and that everyone must live in the house at least one year. We also put it in positive light as well. The problem has gone away now ecspecially since numbers have been going up and we have tried to focus on taking freshman mostly.
