For example, if total was 150 prior to recruitment and most chapters had 180 members after recruitment, total would be adjusted up to that 180 average chapter size range.

So, if a chapter made quota and had 154 members after recruitment, they could pick up an additional 26 members through COB. Gives the smaller chapters a chance to catch up to the larger chapters in size....
You are making my point. They adjust total to avg chapter size and then COB to that, which happens to be avg chapter size. As DeltaBetaBaby understood, total can be whatever Panhellenic wants it to be, so set it where you want the COB limit and use the terminology correctly.

AOII is part of formal recruitment. I think they're using the Sigma Chi house during recruitment. I saw it somewhere on a map. My daughter visited them today and said they'll have a house next year. Not sure where it'll be.

On a side note the Farmhouse house is almost complete on Greek Row. It is huge, 38000 sq ft I've heard.

I have heard that AOII actually had a great start last spring! I hope they do well this recruitment!

Today is the first round of cuts, and the waiting to hear how it went is so difficult! Good luck to all the girls - hope they are happy with today's invites.

Okla State has a wonderful greek system. Beautiful houses, nice girls, lots of opportunities. I loved every minute of my time there...back in the Jurassic period. Good luck to all. What is the news?

The weather has been hot, low 100s or high 90s. But at least its a dry heat.

Skit round is almost complete. Pref tomorrow and bid day Saturday. Almost done.

My daughter hasn't given me as many details as I'd like. She did throw me a bone and has said everyday that the girls at every house she's been too have been very nice.

How is your girl holding up? Hope she is having a great time. The weather can be positively mummifying.

This campus passed a resolution, automatically setting total at average chapter size following bid day. Hopefully that number will be announced more quickly this year so that any chapters who need to/would like to COB, can gain parity quickly!

I think she's having the typical range of emotions: excitement, nervousness, happiness, disappointment, confusion, fun. Will post more once recruitment is over.

At the bolded, I take it that: Chapter Size = Actives + PNMs.
