Registration closed on Monday with 1217 PNM's registered! Formal Recruitment starts one week from today! Good luck to those going through recruitment this year at UT and remember that keeping an open mind will ensure a more successful experience...all 14 chapters are amazing..you honestly CANNOT go wrong with any chapter at UT!
Hook-em!

Didn't want to hijack AndysToys thread (which is EPIC and I can't wait to hear the end of...but...)
Has anyone heard rumblings of quota? Bids come out at 5pm today!

Do most chapters take all of the upperclass quota?

On a detour:
In general (not treading on membership selection), why would a chapter not utilize the upperclassmen quota?

Because they're not extending any bids to upperclassmen, the reason, why or rational behind those decisions however would all fall under MS and be specific to each individual chapter.

A chapter that wanted to take just one or two upperclassmen could still do so if they wanted to.

When on earth would they do that? Asking them to make that decision too early is impinging on membership selection, not to mention they don't know from day to day who's coming back and who's not. Plus, word would get around and it would be like another version of the girls who are trying to get out of pledging the more expensive sororities.

It really suprises me that quota is this small  It seems that early cuts were so harsh... I just don't understand why the new mwmber classes are not a lot larger.

That is a few off of last year even though there were more girls registered. I think this shows where RFM is a bit of a guessing game. They might ease off a smidge next year. But it could also be by intention... wanting to keep quotas under control?
