Re: Different ceiling for Spring and Fall? Pitt people attn.!

I just talked to my one little who is still active. She said that they have established 2 different totals: 70 for the Spring, and 55 for the fall.

I don't understand this or the logic of it. She said it was something about trying to help chapters who are graduating a lot of seniors, so they can build up before fall rush?

Spring rush at Pitt is informal and there's always a very low turnout. I don't see how raising the ceiling, which would allow every group to rush, would help out the majority of chapters. SO few girls rush, that the more popular groups could easily take them all leaving the smaller/less popular groups emptyhanded!

Can either Fire1977 or honeychile shed some light on this?

Anyone every heard of this sort of thing at any other school?
I haven't heard about this, but you can be sure that I'll be asking! As much as our Pitt chapter would be one to REALLY benefit (we stand to graduate almost half the chapter!), it's not in the proper Panhellenic spirit.

kddani, you're right - the historically big chapters would just add 15 more women (if possible), and there would be no need to worry about quota in the fall, really.

Question: would COB up to 70 be allowed? This just opens such a HUGE can of worms!!
