Is this ok?

For the sake of this discussion let's put Chapter Total aside and COR'ing up to Total. I'm only talking about Quota. Let's say at State U there are 6 chapters. If quota is set at 25 all chapters achieve quota. However, all except 1 get 10 quota additions. Wouldn't it be more fair to set quota at 35 and let the 1 chapter try to snap bid up to quota? This way ABC at least has a chance to grow it's size to be comparable with the others. If they make quota they can't issue anymore bids.

With this scenario, the end results are the same as if the quota was set at 25 and all but one got 10 quota additions. If the new quota is 35, then that group still only pledges 25 because if 10 more girls had wanted to join it, they would have been their quota additions. Raising quota only works if there are sufficient numbers to fill it. QA's are added to a group's bid list when they are (usually) the pnm's first choice, but failed to match up in regular bid matching.
