Different ceiling for Spring and Fall? Pitt people attn.!

[kddani]

So total at Pitt for as long as i've known has been 60.

I just talked to my one little who is still active. She said that they have established 2 different totals: 70 for the Spring, and 55 for the fall.

I don't understand this or the logic of it. She said it was something about trying to help chapters who are graduating a lot of seniors, so they can build up before fall rush?

Spring rush at Pitt is informal and there's always a very low turnout. I don't see how raising the ceiling, which would allow every group to rush, would help out the majority of chapters. SO few girls rush, that the more popular groups could easily take them all leaving the smaller/less popular groups emptyhanded!

Can either Fire1977 or honeychile shed some light on this?

Anyone every heard of this sort of thing at any other school?
