Indiana University Recruitment 2017

[33girl]

I'm talking about Indiana obviously, not every other school on the planet. No one else sets a minimum quota prior to rush.

Supposedly a couple groups set their quota quite a bit higher than the mandated 55. I'm just confused as to why they would do that. If I'm all wet about this, IU people please let me know.

Another Indiana question: do they have anything resembling a campus total at present?

I feel that the above statement is more of the driving force at IU! I would like to see Mandatory Policy of ALL Fraternities having pairs on a rotation system. This would stop many girls from just dropping out all together. Just because they received invites from lower tier sororities. Once this stops, maybe we can obtain a better idea of statistics for recruitment. Just a thought...........

A couple of comments came to mind while catching up on this thread today. As Clemsongirl wrote, there are campuses who are considering making the move to only two chapters for preference. I know of one SEC campus that has been discussing making this move for next year. I think that two is a good idea even on large campuses. I think three complicates the matter, sometimes.

To answer 33girl: No, IU does not have chapter total. They do calculate average chapter size and some of the GLOs on campus uses it as a gauge for their chapter's success.

Now about this random pairing idea, I have been for it for many years. The concept works other places, it might not go over well at first but after a few years Greeks would get used to it. I know there would be a few details to iron out, but I believe it's possible.

I hope that this year's recruitment brings about some lasting change. Going to quota/total would be a good start.
