How would they choose which pledges to drop? I've heard of universities not allowing pledge classes at all, but I've never heard of them reducing the amount of people an organization can take in.
This should be interesting.

I think what Florida did was cap the size of the pledge class before fall. Like if say Phi Delt would normally take somewhere around 40 in a fall, the University would only let them take 15 or 20 or some number much lower.

OK, that makes sense. I thought they made pledges drop mid-process or something.
Like someone said earlier, all this will do is cause underground pledging.

Mizzou did this to either ATO or Delta Upsilon at one point. They were not allowed to take any pledges for 1 year.

I can understand universities not allowing GLOs to take any members; I was confused by them dictating how many people the organization could take.
CB cleared up my confusion, though.

^^ I quoted the wrong post. I meant to quote CB's post about UF ATO and Phi Delt. I was just adding in useless trivia about a similar incident at Mizzou.

ATO was allowed to take pledges, but they weren't allowed to live in the house.
DU was allowed to take pledges, but their status was more.... New Member, SigEp style.
These sanctions were in place fall '07-spring '08 ish.
