Another congrats from here, Private I.
I'm glad someone else saw this article. It's one of the very few that spells out the recruitment process without any snide slanting from the usual suspects.
When I went through formal recruitment at BU in 1987 there were *maybe* 30-40 girls for 6 NPC chapters. (TriDelta, Alpha Phi, G Phi B, AEPhi, SDT, ADPi - DG was established a year later. SK returned after I graduated.) At most you had about 8 girls per new member class, assuming everyone got bids. On top of that, the Rho Chis weren't completely disaffiliated - many wore letters, etc.
Womens' Greek life at BU has come a LONG way in a relatively short time and with 30-girl NM classes, everyone must be bumping pretty close to total. (Which is 70, BTW)
From what I've seen the men's groups have been struggling w/ recruitment but with some elbow grease that could turn around as well.
GO TERRIERS!!!
On a somewhat related tangent, does anyone up in BU-land know if there is ever going to be an updated listing of GLO's websites? Or is the IFSC ever going to create one? (Speaking of helping the men and continuing to grow the Greek system, that would be square one, IMHO.)
