Wow, can't believe all the sororities at VTech (except one) are significantly over total. Has their been any talk of expansion at their school?

If I remember correctly, they raised total 10 last spring after FR, and they haven't re-evaluated yet this spring. The past two years quota has been 51, which is significantly larger than in previous years. I haven't heard any direrct talk of expansion yet, but I am only an advisor from a distance, not located on the campus (or even in the state!) to know if those conversations have begun.

The University of Puget Sound finished formal recruitment on Jan 25th. It was the largest recruitment in about 15 years, with 130 women receiving bids, up from 88 last year! Quota was 32 - and Pi Beta Phi has 34 new members!!!

That's fantastic! If a very strong recruitment becomes a trend, perhaps one or more of the closed chapters would be able to recolonize. I'd love to see more chapters around here

While I agree with you thetygerlily - there were 6 sororities and 6 fraternities when I was an active, and now we are down to 4 sororities and 3 fraternities - I really wonder how well any chapter would do now that everyone has a chapter house.

When I was an undergrad, 2 of the sororities had chapter houses on our greek row, and 4 were housed on the main campus in dorms that were solely occupied by each sorority. They were very nice dorms, and each chapter had exclusive use of their dorm and had a large chapter room and kitchen that was also exclusively theirs.

I just have to wonder how a group coming in could be competitive with the 4 other sororities with houses. And houses are owned by the university (the chapters have a sort of lease), and I cannot imagine the university building new houses for any new groups. There also isn't a lot of room on Union Avenue where the existing 8 houses are.

That all being said, it looks like one more fraternity will be colonizing next year and will have the old Sigma Nu house to occupy. That is pretty exciting!
And I am beyond thrilled to have 130 more greek women on campus!!!

Today was bid day at Syracuse University in upstate NY. Phi Sigma Sigma made quota (47 (T)) plus 1! 48 new sisters!

[Francisx3]

Bid Night at Bethany College (WV) was this past Friday! Couldn't post any sooner because a big snowstorm hit and we were without power till yesterday afternoon. But... here are the numbers (at least for the sororities).

Alpha Xi Delta- 15
Phi Mu- 14
Zeta Tau Alpha- 10

and the local sorority, Delta Epsilon Pi, got 1.

Quota was 14, which means ZTA didn't quite make quota but we are so happy with our girls!

Just as it was said by Nieng17 a few posts earlier, quota was 47 at Syracuse. Gamma Phi Beta has 47 fantastic new girls and I believe all 12 houses matched quota for the first time in a few years. This is the year that I don't think any house had to snap bid!

Anyway, it was a fantastic rush this year...last year Quota was 42, this year it was 47!
