Not when you compare it to Sigma Delta Tau (no offense meant to any SDTs out there). As we've seen in the UGA thread and the issue surrounding DG, there are lots of different reasons why certain chapters have stellar years and why others have years where they don't recruit as many. *shrug*

Thank you, Heather!

Was quota about 54-55, and the higher numbers from quota plus?

Not to nitpick, but Alabama does not have Theta Phi Alpha and I believe that Sigma Delta Tau is actually the house y'all are thinking of.

Yeah, I'm a big dork and wrote Theta Phi Alpha instead of Sigma Delta Tau. Do they look alike? noooo

Because we are "new" to the campus compared to some other houses...and some other Alabama political issues that don't need to be gone into. I also read in the paper that we actually had 29 new members, but maybe some dropped because we like being racially diverse??

If a girl dropped my GLO because we choose to be racially diverse, she'd be doing us a favor because I wouldn't want her as my sister anyway.

My thoughts exactly! I have complete faith that our EL chapter will be at total within the next 10 years. Everything I have heard about them proves that they are awesome women.

Actually I believe our Bama chapter snap bid 7 more ladies for a total of 30. And yes there are many issues to deal with when a chapter is in a situation like this...personally it makes me very sad, esp when comments from folks who read the local news article about Carla Ferguson said mean things like, "well if it had to happen at least it was at the worst sorority on campus..."

Actually that not only makes me sad, but it makes me VERY angry too!

I think I just may start a new thread seeking ideas -- guess this forum is a good place to post it....
