It's a combo of housing and that certain groups don't want to disturb the status quo. It's exciting regardless and will be interesting to see how things go, especially since the last time Tech opened, a local was getting absorbed. So this is a different process.

When did RFM start?
I remember in the mid 1990's (during the time I lived in ATL), where HUNDREDS of girls who went to Pref at GA Tech -- either 2 or 1 parties -- were getting NO BIDS. A number I heard thrown out was between 200 & 300 (cannot confirm these #s) going to Pref and bidless the next day. Panhellenic would bring up the possibility of expansion, but it kept getting voted down. So sad for the women who wanted to be Greek but couldn't. And the crazy thing, it that there are about 30+ IFC chapters vs. 7 NPC sororities, with avg. fraternity size 60-100 and avg. sorority size 150+ (at the time).
