UCSB Sorority Recrutiment-4 Chapters on Interium Suspension affecting recruitment

[oncegreek]

UCSB has seen many chapters come and go over the years. I was Greek at UCSB in the early eighties, and at that time many girls would rush, but then drop out if they if they were not invited back to a select few houses that were regarded as highly desirable. This attitude, I think contributed to the closure of so many chapters. Off topic, sorry.... some chapters have "satellite houses" that seniors live in... I wonder if activities occurred in those spaces that led to these suspensions. I have never heard of any other campus having these.

This might lead to the PNMs to be more open about where they end up rather than focusing on rank. Maybe someone was dead set on ABC and if ABC is out of recruitment she might rethink her choices.

But someone mentioned that COB/informal could occur if the investigation doesn't yield anything significant, so the houses can probably put together a NMC.

No. No. No. Sigh. No.

oncegreek, TLLK & I are very familiar with UCSB & we have had private convos about the greek system there. Their opinions are valid. I happen to agree with them.

And I've had convos w/ AZ-Alpha Xi about what my other Panhellenic sisters here have shared vis-a-vis the Green Book and this situation.

Again UGH UGH UGH.

Yes I understand that the "satellite houses" are still ongoing in 2021. Considering the housing crisis that the university has had and is currently experiencing, these types of houses are still needed.
