Daughter is looking forward to attending preview day at UA. How many girls do you anticipate will attend? I hear sororities are huge at Bama, we are out of state, so looking forward to learning more.

As Exlurker quoted above, last year there were over 1200 PNMs who attended. FYI about 1475 ended up going through Recruitment in fall then. With the economy improving though still struggling, the attendance number should hopefully provide an estimate of what to expect come fall.

As for chapter sizes, this past spring Chapter Total was increased to 225. Last fall Quota was 72 for freshmen and 5 for upperclassmen.

Regarding SDT, their numbers are significantly smaller than the other NPC chapters (varying between 15-25). Years ago they decided that the effort and expense required to participate in Bama's Formal Recruitment simply was not translating into pledge numbers. Therefore their time and money would be better spent on other things.

SDT decided to reinvent itself as a smaller chapter rather than try to compete head-on with the other Panhellenic groups. This they do with national's blessing.
