Bingo Zillini!
I know people don't get how we do things, but like I said it is because we have such a high volume of girls we have to take other things into consideration. Out of 1500, each house gets to choose 77 or so. I am starting to get the impression that some posters believe we should be changing our practices or that some how "the way they did things at their school back in the day" is some how superior. I am in no way saying how things ran at Bama are the best, we can always improve, I am just saying this is what works for our system right now. It is unfortunate that not all girls get matched and some really great girls slip through the cracks. If your school had that many girls going through, how would you make cuts? You would get nit picky too.
And LittleOwl- are you somehow inferring that Alabama is not a good academic university? I know some people think we are all inbred and don't wear shoes, but The University of Alabama System (UA, UAH, UAB) is one of the highest respected systems in the country for engineering, medicine, business, etc. We are able to maintain 3.5+ GPAs and still know how to have a good party. I have friends who graduated from ivy league schools who have amounted to nothing after college and some of the most successful people, in the South at least, graduated from UA. And like I said, elsewhere things maybe different, but when I say I am a graduate of the University of Alabama, the first thing out of people's mouths are "What sorority are you in?" and I am proud to tell them.
