UGA to implement upperclassman quota

[carnation]

Another mother of a UGa student told me months ago that this was expected to happen due to the large number of students whose acceptances are being put off until spring semester. She said that that was the reason for the formal spring recruitment--that a lot of parents were upset because their daughters wouldn't be given full consideration next fall because they'd be sophs.

I'm glad to hear about the upperclass quota!

Do they think this is going to keep happening? Or was this year a fluke?

I would imagine so; if Greek Life only did an upperclass quota for a year and then went back to the old method, some Greek parents would probably torch the building. It's so difficult to get into Georgia as a freshman that if their children can't get in then, at least they want a more equal footing for them to go Greek.

I'm all for upperclass quota--I wish that Auburn would start one--but wow, I don't see how the chapters function with over two hundred members now! My own chapter is absolutely massive and I can't imagine the logistics of chapter operation these days.
