Griffins&Quills, I'm curious where you get your recruitment numbers from. It seems like you are correcting many numbers coming from pretty reliable sources....

Well, that sounded pretty snarky.
However, it makes more sense now that your numbers are frequently a few higher than reported by others. Results in a membership database could likely include COBs and not only FR Bid matching results.

If a group makes quota, they could still be below the new total after it is set following formal recruitment if they had fewer members going into formal recruitment or if other groups got many quota additions, etc.
I don't know anything about the two campuses and numbers you just posted about. Over the last few weeks there have been schools that I know your numbers are a few higher than accurate for bid matching results, so I was curious of your sources. It makes more sense to me now.

Illinois State just put a photo on Instagram saying that they have 65 new members. I originally saw a photo that had 59.... my mistake. Sorry for the trouble Irispipes.

No trouble at all. Thanks for the update.

Wait a second.
All these "corrected numbers" is confusing. I thought that the numbers to be posted were the ones that occurred at bid matching. Otherwise these numbers would be constantly changing.
So, a chapter makes or doesn't make quota at bid matching - but then does COB b/c total was raised - to me, that doesn't mean "corrected" numbers.
irishpipes - can you clarify?

 Probably not a good idea to assume anything.

I promise you Sigmagirl2000 and Irishpipes are not counting heads in instagram or twitter.

So how about we all clarify where we're getting numbers from moving forward so there isn't any confusion - much like how we are asked to post sources for expansion or closure news?

I receive much information via pm or from the posts people make here. Sometimes people tell me how they got the information, and sometimes they don't.
I don't know if Griffins&Quills has a personal objection to me, but throughout this thread she takes digs. I welcome data and always have, but the tone of her posts is annoying. Reminds me of The Office episode where they keep saying, "redacted" except in this case it's "corrected."
