All is going well for the sororities. I heard about 890 women are registered and about 850 men are registered. (I could be wrong on the men's figures).
Tomorrow night is skit night!

Yay! I have a friend who is in DG there.
I actually had an opportunity to see the houses there once. They are all so beautiful.
It was really funny because I was showing her pics of our newest pledge class (of 18) This is considered a large class to us. She said, "Aww that class is so tiny and cute!"
Her pledge class apparently had 90-ish women in it! I asked her, "Well how do you get to know everyone?" She told me that you really can't truly *know* everyone but you know that they are your sister and you try to hang out with the chapter as much as you can so you can at least know everyone's faces. I know the chapters there do alot of sisterhoods and like mini mixers with the pledge classes (like Sophomore/Senior bowling, etc) to try and help people get acquainted.

A friend's niece is a Panhellenic officer at Ole Miss and she's been fearing problems all week because there's a huge number of Chi O legacies this year. If so, I fear for the chapter because there's no way they can pledge them all....

This happened to a chapter at my school this year, with quota at like 15, they had enough legacies coming through that they could've filled an entire pledge class with them. Of course that couldn't happen, so there were some very upset XYZ legacies this recruitment. It isn't pleasant for them, but they have to make room for some non- legacy girls too...

Quota was 91! AOII got 93! From what I've heard all of the houses made quota plus additions! Get excited! Lots of new members on campus!!!!
ETA: I wrote down my figures wrong...sorry that's what being sick does to you!

I come from UF, where quota is usually in the 50s-60s, and I can't even imagine a new member class half again as large as ours! What on earth do you do with 92 new members? How do you learn their names? You ladies at Ole Miss have my respect - I'm not sure I could do it!

Good job, Rebels! That's about a 93% placement rate (not counting quota additions)--fantastic!

Excellent point, MSKKG! Have things happened over the years to reduce the number / percent of dropouts? Wasn't there a time when -- at least in legend -- a good many Ole Miss PNMs would withdraw if they weren't invited back to ABC, DEF, or XYZ? (Whatever those might be for a given PNM.)

I had the same thought, and to think it is soooo hard to get a bid at Ole Miss  There must have not been any Northern Girls participating in recruitment!!!! Opps...

Congrats to Dominotheta's sister, a new MS Beta!!!!
