Panhellenic seems to be really interested in helping. SDT grow their numbers which could mean adding another group to formal in the next year or two? Which could certainly be helpful in with the huge increase in numbers going through formal. I would love to see SDT back on the row so I would encourage all girls released to check them out!

I don't think the problem is with Bama not wanting to add chapters. They put out a notice awhile back and only one chapter showed interest. This chapter was not selected by the Panhellenic to colonize. I have always assumed that the NPCs not on campus may be the ones who are gun shy. A Bama sized house is a HUGE financial commitment, not sure how many of the non-represented NPCs are ready, willing or able to make that type of commitment. Looks like AXiD might be in the best position, already owning a structure.

AXiD hasn't owned a house at UA in several years. Gamma Phi Beta purchased their old house and renovated it a while back.

Oh, by the way, I'm running in instate/OOS numbers right now. It's a lot, so give me some time!
But in short, I think we can put to rest any worries about OOS girls not getting bids at ALL chapters at Bama.

About 17% of AGD pledge class is from outside the south, with about 30-31% more from Southern States Outside of Alabama. 51-52% of total pledge class from Alabama. I think the Non-South percentage is similar (ish) to last year. Not that I ran the numbers or anything...........

My last Bama lady went Alpha Chi Omega...between Bama this week and UGA last week, I'm exhausted! On another note, I have a Georgia Southern PNM who went Kappa Delta today and am waiting news on two Auburn PNMs tomorrow.

My daughter is a senior Alpha Chi Omega, and said they are thrilled with the new pledge class. Congrats to greekdee's and Bamamom13's rec girls. AXO has a wonderful chapter at UA, and the new class will have a beautiful new house in the near future too.

I'm not done, but I have to quit for the day.
Here are some early details. The most Alabama-centric chapter took about 53% local girls. The least Alabama-centric chapter took an amazing 12% of Alabama girls.
So far the only state I haven't seen represented is Hawaii, but we have UK so that covers our island requirement

Holy number crunching, DubaiSis! I guess that puts to lie the idea that OOS girls are less desirable. Love the stats work!

DubaiSis - My DD was born in Hawaii. Does that count?
