(We Currently have 23 "actives" and 3 Spring "candidates"... since we are a colony nationally our actives are considered equal to chapter candidates)
We decided 4-6 girls would be a successful rush but we wouldn't cap it simply because we wouldn't turn a woman of true quality and that we can see benefiting us and reaping the benefits of A.O.E.
I hope this answers those questions.

Sending up love from the South!
WOW 23+3, I'm so proud of you guys! Way to work your butt off.

Yeah right now we are at about 20 fully participating active girls. We do have a candidate class of 10 but we have about 10 people graduating this spring. I am not graduating this spring and would love to see us grow even bigger in the fall. As a chapter, I feel like we have finally got down how to recruit and COB more. Personally I would love to see our chapter hold a steady number of 40 girls at least within the next 3 years.

Pros of a bigger chapter:
~more sisters are willing to just be an active sister and don't feel the need to hold a position
~ everyone can find at least one person to connect with in the sorority
~finally being able to participate in Greek activities on campus with a big number.

Cons of a bigger chapter:
~not a personal as it is right now (maybe this is a pro if you think of talking to your sisters on a professional level)
~ might not keep the smaller fraternities as friends if we get too big

... I don't know

With all the threads on Big/Little popping up, I was wondering what other chapters did for big little. The Angle had an interesting article featuring a few chapters on Big/Little tradition.

We reveal the big sister during candidate initiation. There's a part of it that lends itself very well. Then, after the ritual, we let the girls know that that woman is their big!

Does your chapter or family tree have any presents they pass down? We have a family t-shirt. However, I have twins this year so I don't know what I'm going to do.

Any special gifts you do?

Hi, ladies!

I have my Alumnae Activation Ceremony tonight.

It will be fun to see life from the other side: I'm ready!

Is anyone going to Convention?
