I know that at places where a quota may not be set (for example, we have a chapter at VA Wesleyan, and for several years it was the only NPC sorority on campus, ergo no quota) that our national volunteers and whoever else is working with the chapter take all the campus and chapter factors into account to set a membership target. This probably includes things like campus retention as a whole, how many seniors are graduating, the size of the school blah blah blah. Knock on wood, it seems as though we are veering on the conservative side at IU, to which I quote Heather Duke and say PRAISE JESUS.
And DubaiSis, you have been SUPER condescending in every post you've made about unhoused chapters at IU. They are NOT an "alternative." They rushed with all the rest of the chapters and had the same bid day as the rest of the chapters. An alternative would be a social/service sorority like Gamma Sigma Sigma* or a social/professional fraternity like Delta Sigma Pi* - a group whose rush is conducted at a different time, who gives bids at a different time. ASA and TPA have NEVER said that they intend to stay unhoused or only rush women who don't want to live in a house. They are for now the unhoused chapters, just like some chapters are the "third street" or whatever chapters.
*Not trying to throw y'all under the bus, just needed an example.
