Does anyone know what the numbers are based on?
It's too complicated to explain here (at least for me), and I don't know if anyone will attempt to, but basically it's based upon return rates in the past.

Say XYZ usually has nearly 100% of women accept invitations to their second round party, over the course of the past five years.

Say ABC usually has around 50% of women regret invitations to their second round party, over the course of the past five years.

So XYZ is going to have to release a lot more women than ABC between the first and second round of parties. There is an "ideal" number that each chapter will have returning to its second round parties in order that its parties are neither too full or too empty.

That's a very rough explanation. The campus Panhellenic uses a computer formula to determine the exact numbers.

LOL: 3 of us posted explanations at the same time. What they said, too.
