That's what I thought.

The actual number of total PNMs from both recent colonies, who participated in formal recruitment, then joined a colonizing chapter, was 304 of the total 438 new colony members. I think that there was a lot of opportunity for upperclassmen to join these chapters, since colonizing chapters want and need new members outside of freshmen and sophmores.

Yet you didn't attend Bama (or any other competitive SEC school), your GLO doesn't have a chapter there, you don't write recs for PNMs there, and don't know girls who joined either of the most recent colonizing chapters.

I do. And I know that the girls selected were great girls, though to state that this process is 3x more difficult than FR, and that these girls are turned inside-out in such a manner, is tantamount to uninformed tent-talk.

Greekdee's post conveyed exactly what needed to be conveyed. I wish there was such an opportunity upcoming for transferring upperclassmen like bamagirl. I think we still need more chapters to colonize at Bama (just my opinion -- especially considering the continued large size of the pledge classes).

One way or another -- I'm sure bamagirl would be happy in any of the chapters there -- and I hope she pursues the opportunity. There aren't any bad choices at Bama!
