What do the people on the ground there think, other than cost of land, blah blah blah.

Agreed! By my count - 2,400 registered - about 20% with no bid (for whatever reason) that leaves ample room for at LEAST one new sorority. Looks like Bama has saved room on new row for new homes.....

Where are you getting the 2400 number? The highest number we've seen is ~2100. You also don't need to have any bidless women to justify a new sorority. The large quota that just keeps getting bigger justifies expansion. The large number of women dropping out is a whole other story that has nothing to do with the need for another sorority.

AOII Angel - you are right. I had written down the wrong number. If ~ 2,100 pledged - the numbers are much closer than 20%.....
