Interestingly there were a lot of chapters that had exactly that number, including some who historically take much less, so it does appear that Panhellenic put that suggestion out and many took it.

I was at the meeting where the information that emptynest posted was discussed. Nothing she posted was incorrect, but I do not know if the information was for public consumption yet, or ever. I had some interaction with her last year, and my impression is that she shared the information not knowing she shouldn't. I truly do not think she meant any harm.
Panhellenic voted an approved a minimum quota for next year. All chapters must take at least 50, however they may take more. Now that almost every chapter has a live out policy, I would assume that many more chapters should be open to QAs than they have been in the past.
