Largest Lines

That is a good question. Considering my line of 26 butts heads and has conflicting schedules (like any other busy person) if the rules of the Sorority and the university would allow I would consider small lines twice a year. Of course that is just my speculation which would probably be too much. IDK.

I know a Soror from 137 PRIVY (Alpha Chapter).
I saw a Delta line jacket with the #121 on it (not sure if she is the tail).

I am the tail of 26. I have a hard enough time keeping up with 25 other people I really could not imagine any more, that is why I am not fan of large lines, but oh well.

I reread this thread. It was pretty good.

I know this is an NPHC-specific thread, but we've been having these discussions in Alpha Phi Omega as well. About six chapters in my region are considered "large." One chapter in my section has 70+ pledging right now. I think the fraternity is doing a good job at supporting large chapters, but generally, the chapters' sizes didn't creep up on them, so they are doing a good job managing.

My home chapter is a little afraid of getting that big.

We just had a line of 15 at Norfolk State.

I figure if I re-read all of this, I might as well bump it.

Good bump!

I got nothing to add but what has all been said. But I notice we talked largely about UG, though I know that some that were mentioned were alumnae chapters. I want to say that Eta Sigma (Atlanta alumnae) chapter recently had... 19 women? I'd have to go back and look, but I want to saw it was Spring 13.

My former alumnae chapter's last intake class was 10, so there's that. Can't speak for UG - I'm out the loop!

I just heard about an AKA line in Atlanta that was 162.
Also, I think DST just crossed a line in Atlanta that was 166.

Both of these were graduate chapters, I believe.

I had friends/acquaintances on both of those lines.


Atlanta: We're joiners.

I know some of the Sorors in the AKA chapter (wonder if I am acquainted with any of the ladies on the new line) . Don't know if I know any of the DST folk. I know I have family who were interested in that chapter a while ago. Speaking of which....
