Congrats to all the girls! My daughter is now a proud new member of Kappa Kappa Gamma. I was hoping she would end up at my sorority, but she chose what was right for her!
Quotas were determined by the total number of members in the sorority. If a sorority has girls that have dropped out, left school, gotten married etc....then the chapter is allowed to "fill" those spots with new members. It helps keep the chapters even and gives more girls a chance to pledge.

Filling those spots is part of bidding up to chapter total. It has nothing to do with quota - once set, quota is the same for every group, regardless of how many members they have. If they have quota additions, that's a courtesy to the PNMs, not to the sororities.

Your sorority might have used "bed quotas" at the time you were a member. But that is very uncommon these days and not in place at Auburn now.

If her chapter had bed quotas, she wasn't at Auburn! Maybe Arkansas.....

Yeah I don't know history well enough or what area of the country she's from. I just know from the thread it's not present at this place at this time.

I think about the only school left that actually uses bed quotas is Indiana University. My cousin's daughter (a Zeta legacy) is going there, but I don't know if she's rushing or not.

I wonder if there are any others. I'm sure there's a thread on that.

Congratulations!
So happy for all the women who made it through the week and found their home. 
And I'm happy for their parents who have lots of fun events to look forward to over the next three or four years.
Congratulations!
