Whooaaa!!! Go ZTA!

Tracy
All 60K seats? Holy shite!

Yep, those girls worked hard along with our alumnae and the girls from Franklin College. You can see pics on the Zeta Facebook page.

One of my chapter sisters (and closest friends!) just told me that her little sister pledged Tri Delta at Dartmouth! She's so excited!

My son went Sigma Chi at Ole Miss.

I had a small sorority rec crew this year (I guess because I had a boy instead of a girl in this grade) but ended up with:

1 Tridelt at UGA
1 AXO at UGA
1 Alpha Gam at U of West GA
1 Phi Mu at U of West GA
1 Phi Mu at Georgia Southern

Good luck to your cousin. It will be interesting to see how recruitment goes this year at TheOSU since they lifted chapter total.

[QUOTE=BuckeyeTriDelta;2016218]WAIT...say waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Did they raise total or just nix a chapter total all together... [QUOTE]

As far as I've heard it, they didnt get rid of chapter total, they just changed how quota for Formal Recruitment worked as of last year. Chapters could COB in fall quarter up to 100 (which used to be the set total) and then still take quota in formal recruitment. Quota used to be a somewhat arbitrary 25 women, but has now changed to what I think is a "true quota" system- the number of women attending preference parties divided by the number of houses, which is 14? (Correct me if i'm wrong on my terminology, the system was different back when I was a Rho Gamma and had to explain it all!) I believe quota for last year was 23, so after formal recruitment it left some houses with 123 girls and some houses with 60-70 girls, which never seemed fair or good to the system to me. The houses that did not pass 100 with the addition of their formal recruitment pledge classes could then COB in winter and spring, but only up to that 100-women mark.

Unless they've changed it again...
