Recruitment Results

[AOE2AlphaPhi]

At the University of Puget Sound,
Quota was 19
Alpha Phi-20
Pi Beta Phi- 20
Gamma Phi Beta-19
Kappa Alpha Theta-13

Quota dropped by 4 since last year and Theta is doing COB events right now to get their numbers up. Last year, with the higher quota, they got 12, so they are doing better.

Sorry I have to reply to this not in a malicious way or anything, but just for clarification. Just because we have fewer women absolutely does not mean that we weren't doing just fine already. My chapter has made leaps and bounds since I joined, and we have an AMAZING sisterhood. I commend all the UPS chapters for doing so well this spring despite the fewer number of women going through formal recruitment in the first place. I just wanted to say something because the tone of your final comments was a little negative. However, I do realize that it was probably inadvertent because it's hard to get your exact point across when all you have to work with is text.

I'm really sorry if that seemed negative. I didn't mean for my comments to come across that way at all. Most of my best friends are Thetas and I was trying to emphasize how well you ladies did. I agree that it was a great recruitment for all the chapters this semester.

I personally think it's a bigger problem that quota has dropped so much, I remember that it was more in the upper 20's not too long ago (with 5 houses). The fact that we lost a chapter only a couple of years ago AND quota has dropped seem to be a bad trend.

But on the bright side, informal (Fall) results have remained high.
