But you wouldn't be because you wouldn't attend all 16 - member or PNM. The members do not work all the parties as the chapter have too many members to do that. They won't all fit in the house with the PNMs. So you get some parties off. And the PNMs can't attend that many parties no matter how many invites they get so it's cut down for them too.

Just wanted to wish all the PNM's & moms a great week!
I don't know why but I am anxious about this recruitment even though my D is a Junior Sorority member at UA. I just know how hard all the houses work!
We also have a hometown friend going through rush!
Check out the cute video at UA Panhell Facebook page! Roll Tide!

Good luck to all the PNM's and sorority members. I have several girls from Charlotte, NC that I am keeping tabs on and especially one. Today was cooler than normal in T'Town but they still had 5 girls faint - not bad for the number going through. Hope the weather holds but we will see what tomorrow brings. Roll Tide!!

I will never stop being amazed at the level coordination you're talking about. They have 250+ members in those (relatively) little houses all the time?! Plus advisors, parents and PNMs. It's like throwing a party in the Tokyo subway and still making sure everyone has a good time.

As you probably know, this is a recolonization for Delta Gamma. They had a chapter at Bama years ago.

I know, so glad DG is returning. Alabama needs 2 or 3 more chapters to even make a dent in the large pledge classes. I wonder who will be next to colonize, and if anything is in the works?

They could add all the rest of NPC groups and still have large chapters. I don't know who will be next and what about housing? When the new houses are built, I suppose newer groups could take over those existing houses but after that??? As Dr. Witt increases enrollment, rush is going to continue to grow. It will be interesting to see how all of this plays out.

I think UA's plans are to maintain the size of the current undergrad population, and now look at growing the graduate school. They are also wanting to continue to increase the quality of the incoming freshman. That is why UA gives such great merit scholarships to OOS students, and there are so many OOS girls pledging.

They want to add 3 more chapters to get to 20 and that would fill all the lots. You could either renovate and existing house or tear it down and build new.
And while one chapter may have all the women on the floor, that's not a given with all of them. And some work behind the scenes doing other things. We're beginning to veer into MS region here....

Wonder what the total number of PNMs will be with formal recruitment and those who are only going thru DG's colonization process?

As of Day 1, a little more than 1,700 PNMs in formal recruitment.
Online signups are going on now for Delta Gamma interviews.

What happened to the over 1700 number we were hearing? Was that wrong or did that many change their minds?
