Indiana University 2014 Recruitment

If each chapter took 5 more girls, that would get us to approximately 100 more girls getting placed. That would help but it still wouldn't get all girls placed or guarantee the girl who is adamant that she is MEANT to be an ABC will be one. Who we think we are and who the world sees us as are sometimes nowhere near the same thing. The fact is at normal schools, girls complain and/or cry and/or drop out of rush because ABC cut them and it was the only chapter "they felt comfortable in." If IU threw out bed quota there would still be 5 or 6 most competitive chapters and girls would be screaming about getting stuck with "that" chapter. Then IU would fall inline with Alabama and Texas for crazy competitive, but not straight up mean.

This. And what people don't take into consideration is that the more women who sign their bid cards AND maximize their options, the more women are placed as quota additions...even at IU.

Yes, I think you are totally right. Let's get rid of the mean! We can't get rid of the competitive.

We all pray that happens but are doubtful it will.
