Holy crap that's a lot! Doing the math quickly in my head 1300/16 = potential pledge classes of 81!?

but you also have to account for the women who will be dropped or will drop out themselves.

If 25% drop / get dropped, potential pledge classes (quota) would be 61. Still quite large.

But from what I've been told and heard, that is normal for an SEC school or large southern school (such as FSU or University of South Carolina). I could be wrong though...

I totally agree! I think a pledge class of 5 is too small and one of over 60 is too big, the ideal pc i would say is in the 30's. but I will be dreaming to get one that size...I can't wait to hopefully meet my new sisters!! Only 17 days left until Bid Day!

I expect quota, as usual, will be pretty big. Ever since Auburn instituted the new release figures, which seem to work quite well there, almost everyone has gotten quota. Last year I believe that 15 of 16 groups took quota.

Oh boy! I'm expecting to see scads of new members wearing arrows, keys, anchors, tridents, and all those other cool pins! Warrrr EAGLE!!!!

I don't know of many groups that aren't already at AU that could take on a school like that.
