Also, I wonder if A Chi O and Kappa Delta are now more than 250 members and if Pi Beta Phi with around 165 members last year is now 200 or more?! Definitely at most schools, if you asked sororities if they could get those numbers, they'd throw their heads back, let out a loud quick laugh, and say "In your DREAMS, babe!" And keep on laughing!

Seriously, Bama' Panhellenic has MUCH to be proud of!!

Quite an accomplishment for a mid-level sorority. Must be dumb luck.

You may have just been being playful, but the post you were responding to does make clear that it was mid-level numbers wise, which is a little different than just saying it's a mid-level group generally, IMO.

Besides that, if anyone doubts the chapter's overall outstanding quality, all they have to do is read the AOPiBamaMom thread and get set straight. Remember the one right after rush about how much her daughter loves the chapter?

My humblest apologies to anyone who may have misunderstood my meaning!!!! I'm quite sure AOPi at Alabama has much to be proud of like a ton of Bama' sororities!!!! I was just trying to make the point that Alabama's Panhellenic system (and I reckon IFC system too, for that matter) is really great and growing all around unbelievably!! But yeah, I should have just said something like "Wow!! that's almost 40 members more than a year ago!!" Alpha Omicron Pi has much to be proud of!!!! I know of few things that look and smell as beautiful as a rose!!!!

Your numbers are off. After formal recruitment last year, AOII had 202 members.
