According to inCircle, AOII was the only group at Jacksonville State in Alabama to make quota, which was 17.

How on Earth is that possible? LOL.

My chapter--DZ at Jacksonville State--got 14 girls, according to my extremely unscientific method of counting new faces in the pics some of my sisters posted on Facebook.

According to my source at inCircle, JSU just started using RFM this year. I guess some chapters screwed it up. Hopefully next year will run better. AOII reaped the benefits this year.

How could they screw it up? Cutting way more girls than recommended? Cutting people that were "unrealistic" for them?

I'm sort of fascinated by the situation because I've never heard of a situation where only one group on a campus made quota... at least not at a southern school where sororities take most of their members via formal recruitment.

I went alum in '06, but I'm relatively certain that we were using some form of release figures back when I was active. (I don't really know how it worked, though, honestly.)

I know the last couple of years, the quota additions were out of hand. When quota is 15 or 20 and some of the chapters were taking 8-10 quota additions and others were only taking 9 or 10 girls through FR period, I guess Greek Life finally decided to take some steps to sort that out. If so, that's great! It can't do anything but help, in my opinion.

I just think it's weird that if quota is determined by dividing the number of girls attending prefs by the number of sororities (5 sororities in this case), then I'm confused as to how at least one or two other chapters didn't make quota. Of course, if they cracked down on release figures AND did away with the crazy quota additions, they could possibly be why.

Results from Northeastern State University - Tahlequah, OK

Quota = 14

Alpha Omicron Pi = 14
Alpha Sigma Alpha = 15
Delta Zeta = 17
Sigma Sigma Sigma = 18

My friend who is an advisor just called me with the results...they just had finished matching when she called me. I'm not sure if the girls have all picked up their bids yet or when bid day starts!

I was told by a collegian today that all UCF chapters except for AEPhi made quota last weekend.
