The atmosphere this year was overwhelmingly more pnms breathed a sigh of relief to be asked back/have a full schedule, rather than only wanting a certain 3 chapters which has always dominated the tent talk. Most girls were just ecstatic to be going to back to any chapter, regardless of it being their "favorite." The reception of Alpha Chi Omega and Phi Mu has been incredible over the past year, so it is possibly to change the culture, despite strong traditions/stereotypes. This type of quota differential was necessary as of last year some chapters had 150+ more members than longstanding chapters. COB just isn't very strong at Arkansas. Traditional recruitment is much more popular, even if that pnm ends up at the same chapter despite which system them go through. There have been talks of further expansion for 2 more chapters this year or next...
Please explain how 30 or 60 NMs are going to make up the difference when chapters are down 150? I know one of the big chapters has 100+ members than several other groups that typically make quota every year. It's not an issue of recruitment. It's an issue of retention.
