Originally posted by ThetokenCanuck Is anyone finding it harder with the double cohert to deal with underage pledgers? I know some pledges take it hard that we impose strict anti-underagers drinking... some people just want to stick with their own age group in rez...
But the double cohort thing is really an Ontario issue. Dal and UBC (for example) have always had underage NMs and PNMs and McGill, U of C and U of A don't really have to worry because their drinking age is 18.
UBC has only had those high numbers for the last couple of years and as already mentioned with the addition of a new sorority on campus, quota is lower because it is now divided by 8 not 7, so UBC had roughly the same numbers go through this year as in the past couple of years, the numbers didn't go, but the addition of a new sorority makes them appear that they did.
Windsor was down too.
our quota is set by national (12) - we bid 6, 4 accepted. not sure how DZ did.
I hate being at UWO - always fighting the image - my friends started taking to calling me "hosebag" last week when i wore my Archon's key. at least they had the courtesy to ask me why i joned ands then listened to my answer...but still. it's just frustrating!
I am surprised how low the numbers are at UWO. I heard that 4 did well and 1 not so well. How do get the sororities' names and Panhel out to the female population at UWO?
I'm not sure how they do it at Western. I know recruitment was always formal in September - but they were only out front of the student centre for 2 or 3 days. last septmeber I didn't see them at all. they don't poster at all. (although i did see once an ad for an Alpha Phi event). and they don't wear letters often. I was a TA last semester for a large class. Only once did i see a young woman with a sweatshirt and one guy wore his a couple times. I'd thought I'd see some in the cafeteria - but never.
I think publicizing sorority life is a must since most students either have no clue what it is, or believe all the stereotypes.
Back home now. winter recruitment is going slow. I hate winter recruitment, but we have no choice.
I hope the semester is going well for everyone else.
