Much harder to convince groups that are still at or above total that they should agree to lower total even if smaller groups are really struggling. It usually means waiting until 2/3 of groups have fallen below total to get the CPH to agree to lower it and that can take a while.

Yes. Thank you. Exactly. IMO better to really work the RFM, destigmatize taking spring pledge classes, and leave total where it is rather than raise it too quickly, without taking all factors (example, high birth rate for that year's freshman class) into account. Once it gets raised it's damn near impossible to get the larger groups to consent to lowering it. Even if the NPC specialist says that's what needs to be done, the members of the school's Panhel are still the ones with the ultimate vote.

That wouldn't change no matter when you change total, but a good adviser will make sure that the chapters understand the rationale behind adjusting total. Lowering total doesn't effect the groups at or above total anyway.

Nah. She finally slithered away. Sometimes PNMs from the same school run together. Hope this opens a door for you.

SECglitter! you crack me up. You funny.
Stay cool; stay out of the side convos; and just take things a day at a time. OK? I personally hope that it all works out for you and that you end up finding your home. OK!
All this talk about total makes me think of cereal.

If total is adjusted every year right after rush, a rise or a drop of a few shouldn't be seen as a problem. It's when you let it go for far too long and the change has to be 50 that dropping total would be a big ole problem.

If, and that's a big if sometimes, they do it correctly, the NPC Area Adviser along with each group's NPC delegate also weigh in. So there should be some sense of rational thinking.

Do you mean that all 17 houses are not at total, not even one of them?
Or do you mean that not all 17 houses are at total, but some are?
