OK the SHIM joke is not only corny but off-topic.

THAT IS CRAZY. My sorority (Alpha Phi at West Virginia) has 100 girls, and I remember when I pledged I had the hardest time trying to learn everyone's names. How do people do it at such a big chapter like those at Ole Miss??

Well, there are only 3 fraternities and 3 sororities on my campus, but here it is anyhow:
Sororities:
Phi Mu (56)
AOPi (41)
Alpha Gam (25)
Fraternities:
Kappa Sigma (???)
Sigma Phi Epsilon (35... but soon to be 37!!!)
Kappa Alpha (around 13)

I think most of the top sororities at my school have around the same number of girls.
Alpha Phi, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Alpha Xi, and Delta Gamma all probably range from 85-100. The other sororities probably have about 75 or something, so they aren't considered bad or anything.
I'm not sure on the numbers for these frats, but the biggest ones are Sig Ep, Phi Sigma Kappa, and either PIKE or Delta Tau Delta. If I had to guess, they all probably have around 80 members. We have a lot more frats than we do sororities. Some of the smaller frats only have about 25 members.

At Berkeley, I think in terms of frats:
1) Pi Kappa Phi - 55
2) Phi Gamma Delta - 51
3) Tau Kappa Epsilon - 47
Sororities:
1) Alpha Omicron Pi: 120+
2) Gamma Phi Beta: ~110
3) Delta Gamma: 90+

Umm, I have several friends in the greek system at Berkeley and I think you really have the sorority numbers wrong.
From what I know from pretty reliable sources, I would say Kappa, Pi Phi, and Tridelta would be the largest chapters there and have been constantly for numerous years. I would also maybe add Alpha Phi to the list.

Not to argue, but the biggest frats on our campus is right around 50. The average right now is 37 guys per fraternity. I had to go to about two months worth of meetings last semester b/c the school was trying to figure out ways to help us get our numbers up.
Depending on how this semester goes-how many pledges make it-the largest will still be right around 60 tops.

Wow really? I had no idea they were all that small. I guess it kinda makes sense since there are like twice as many frats as sororities, so it makes sense that they have half as many members. I mostly know phi sigs the best, I thought they had about 30 just living in their house?

I don't know them that well. I have a classes with a few guys down there, but we don't talk about frat stuff. Plus...I don't know who they actually count. The university counts full time undergrad males. If you don't have full time status or if you grad in December, or if you had to drop all your classes, they didn't count.

Coramoor, a little off topic, but did you guys end up teaming up with chi o this year for homecoming due to alpha phi's "unfortunate circumstance"?
I talked to Frank at elements one night and I'm pretty sure thats who he said you guys ended up with.

I'd like to see WVU get some more sororities. Of course I'm not real sure how rush went this year since I had to go alum  and haven't been around.

I'd love if we got some more sororities, but I'm not sure where they could get houses. The old KD house (right behind mine) looks really pretty from the outside, I've never been inside, but I know WVU uses that for expansion dorms now.
I heard earlier this year we were supposed to get ZTA and they were supposed to rush in the spring, but I haven't heard anything about that in like 2 months.
I think WVU first needs to get more girls to rush. This year quota was only 30, which was the same as last year, but hardly any girls dropped out after the first day, so basically not as many girls rushed. This surprised me cuz I've noticed WVU has been drawing from more southern states lately (I see like 4 Texas, Tennessee, and Kentucky license plates a day) so you'd think if those were girls, they would probably go through rush.

That's true there isn't anywhere to put houses unless WVU wipes out Sunnyside and so generously builds a few (as if that would happen).
I'd like to get KD back. And ADPi. I think a chapter of Alpha Gamma Delta would do well here because I always see girls wearing AGD shirts around campus.
I think the biggest problem with rush is the girls rushing KNOW what sororities are considered "good." And if they don't think they will get a "good" house they will drop out and rush again in spring or COB the "good" houses. Whenever I rushed I knew a lot of girls that did just that. A few of them COB'ed and are now my sisters.
But that was back in the day Fall "02 haha.
