What's the deal with the UCLA Tri-Delt chapter? Did they get in trouble?

Wow that's crazy, KKG managed to go 17 over quota which is the amount that DDD bid. Are they on probation or something?

UCLA DDD is not on probation. Just not a strong recruiting chapter.
I wish DDD HQ would send HELP and not just an observer.

LAblondeGPhi -- thanks for getting the numbers!
Can't wait to get the detailed report from UCLA Panhellenic and see where everyone landed!

What kind of help do you think the national organization should be providing? Obviously it's a frustrating situation, but I think that once you reach the point of a group receiving 1/3rd-1/4th the size pledge class as other groups on campus, they're beyond the help that a national organization could provide. At that point, either the release figures are getting messed up somewhere along the line or (more likely) the majority of PNMs who pref them are refusing to rank them entirely. That's more of a campus culture issue than it is under the national org's power to fix.

Is it possible to have another close Tri Delta chapter -- like * USC, LMU, CSLB or UCSB -- to assist with Recruitment? None have fall recruitment at the same time. (I believe that both CSLB and UCSB "borrow" UCLA's Tri Delta chapter house once a year -- like, during UCLA's Spring Break or during the summer -- for member retreats.)
* Univ. abbreviations: USC = Univ. of Southern California, LMU= Loyola Marymount Univ., CSLB = Cal State Long Beach, UCSB = Univ. of California Santa Barbara.

Roughly 2005-ish, a chapter at my university (Tulsa Univ.) was struggling and a dozen or so members from their strong Oklahoma State chapter helped out during 2 conversational rounds (Open House & Entertainment). The chapter got quota+ that year and hasn't struggled since.

That can be good if the women from the other chapters are strictly helpers - ushering girls in, setting out refreshments etc - so the actual chapter members have more time to talk to the PNMs. But there have been SO many rushees on here who said "ABC had women from other chapters there and I felt tricked when I found out the girl I'd talked to all night was from Other State U."

It might be that they are planning an expansion rush and the consultant is there to observe their strengths and weaknesses (and how rushees react to them) before wasting time presenting a lot of concepts and ideas that don't apply. That would make more sense than trying to pick up girls who had a bad rush.

At that point, I think more groups should seriously consider opting out of formal recruitment and saving their energy and resources for COB.

As someone who transferred mid year and did COB I'd probably have been terrified by the chanting, matching outfits, five minute convos of formal rush. That could be a great way of finding quality members who didn't sign up in time for formal. I'm the first in my family to go to college much less join a Greek org so for us 'virgins' to all of that, it could be weird. I was very involved in my first (two year) college and transferred to a uni with around 25,000 students (it's since gotten bigger) and didn't realize how hard it would be to get plugged in. I worked in the student union and dealt with a lot of the Greeks and decided joining would be a good way to meet people. I can't believe I'm the only one of my species.

PS: My first college is now a 4 year school with Greek life.

I lied. Appalachian State voted to decrease campus total recently. I think this was in regards to stacking a third organization when ZTA had come on campus and AGD was yet to colonize. Their current campus total, per recruitment advisor, is 109.
