This article in the July 2011 edition of The Crimson White is about the Delta Gamma colonization at Bama. It does not give any number breakdowns, but was certainly encouraging to upperclassmen. You can read the entire article, but the person being referenced in the except I posted was Shaun Young, vice president of membership for Delta Gamma.

Delta Gamma is looking to start a well-balanced chapter, so they will be looking for women of all class ranks and ages to join throughout their colonization process.
“What’s really cool about adding a new sorority to a campus, it really opens up the opportunity to women of all class ranks who may not have pledged as freshmen,” she said. “This is the perfect time for upperclassmen who have a lot to contribute to a new sorority in the form of maturity and leadership, as well as those who want the opportunity of lifetime membership in a sorority, to get in.”
Young encouraged every interested girl to at least come and ask any questions she might have about joining. Many upperclassmen already have responsibilities, but Young said she hopes to assure them that Delta Gamma will fit into their already busy lives.
