It was because they thought the # given was "too few cuts. than they normally had to." They just didn't understand that it was good that they got to got to keep that many girls.

I went alum in '06, but I'm relatively certain that we were using some form of release figures back when I was active. (I don't really know how it worked, though, honestly.)

I know the last couple of years, the quota additions were out of hand. When quota is 15 or 20 and some of the chapters were taking 8-10 quota additions and others were only taking 9 or 10 girls through FR period, I guess Greek Life finally decided to take some steps to sort that out. If so, that's great! It can't do anything but help, in my opinion.

I just think it's weird that if quota is determined by dividing the number of girls attending prefs by the number of sororities (5 sororities in this case), then I'm confused as to how at least one or two other chapters didn't make quota. Of course, if they cracked down on release figures AND did away with the crazy quota additions, they could possibly be why.

Results from Northeastern State University - Tahlequah, OK

Quota = 14

Alpha Omicron Pi = 14
Alpha Sigma Alpha = 15
Delta Zeta = 17
Sigma Sigma Sigma = 18

My friend who is an advisor just called me with the results...they just had finished matching when she called me. I'm not sure if the girls have all picked up their bids yet or when bid day starts!

We're tiny and I'm not so sure if anyone has mentioned yet but per a discussion I was having a little while ago:

Western Carolina University

Delta Zeta:14
Alpha Chi Omega: 10

I'm not so sure about the other three but I've heard these too were the biggest so somewhere below 10? Honestly not really sure though...

SC Recruitment

A very tired advisor wrote me Tri Delta at SC took 64 new pearls. The quota number was 60. I do not have information about any of the other chapters at this time.

Univ. of Arkansas-Fayetteville

Thanks to TxGirl for giving us the number pledged at Arkansas: 81

Congrats, twinkle! I hope you enjoyed being a Pi Chi. I had 3 AOII New members in my Rho Chi group as a senior...I loved when they told me things they liked about my chapter!
