While it may be cliche, girls going through recruitment at IU have a huge problem with expectations before rush. That's why I think its so important to be yourself and keep an open mind. SO many girls at IU do not do that and end up getting hurt. The deferred recruitment brings in girls who have spent at least one semester on campus and have expectations of which house they want. As a current member recruiting girls, I have personally seen this during recruitment. Being Greek is not an end-all be-all at IU and some girls need to know that life will go on if they don't get a bid to a "top" house.

The expansion will help to solve the problem. But people are seriously delusional if they think the bed quota is going to change from within the system. I'm not saying its right or wrong, but the changing force is going to have to come from the outside. Current members like the bed quota system, and they are already in the house, think their chapter size is large enough and want things to stay the same. People didn't even want to switch recruitment to all rounds after January because it was "too much too soon." So how do you think people will respond to a complete change of the IU Greek "lifestyle"?
