I not aware of any sorority at UCLA is having trouble filling their house. This is when total was 200 plus having 20-25 members go abroad for Fall or Winter/Spring. With 300 members, basically only one PC gets to live in (+/- Executive Board).
The only hesitation I’ve heard is that ADPi has a 10 girl room that goes to members who have accrued the least amount of points (I can’t explain the point system. Each house has their own and it’s meant to be vague so no one games the system). I have heard that ADPi will be converting this big “bunk room” in to 2 rooms summer 2026 - a 4-person room and a 6-person room.
For historical reference (as I found out from some 50-year members), all houses had a bunk room which housed 10-14 girls as pre-1970’s pledge classes moved directly into the sorority house immediately after Rush. It was the Pledge Room. Purposely using old terms. Most have converted those large rooms. Chi O had a 14-girl room that was changed in to a 6-member and a 4-member room. Size change in number those could hold so the rooms could have larger closets and room for dressers.
