That is not correct. The quota number is the same for all sororities after pref when they make their lists. That doesn't mean they will all end up the same number of pledges in the end after the quotas are filled and the remaining PNMs are assigned, but the majority will be fairly close. Go look up the numbers. There were 1735 PNMs that accepted bids on bid day in 2023. That would be 96 per sorority. There were 1785 new members added overall in the fall semester of 2023, that would be 99 per sorority. Obviously, some of those were COB or whatever, but regardless that comes out to 96-99 new members per sorority on average in fall 2023. If you dig in, 14 of the 18 sororities added 99 or more. There were only two below 92. You mention one of them at 54 new members, so I have no idea where you are getting your information. I also have no idea where people come up with the lower the number for a pledge class the better. Out of thin air I guess. As far as attrition, retention, or whatever you want to call it goes, all sororities grew from fall 2022 to 2023 (average of 20 or 30), because the pledge classes were larger than the graduating classes in 2022 for the most part due to higher PNM numbers. The average member "loss" for all sororities was around 10 from fall 2023 to spring, due primarily to December graduations, which shows none of them were facing much in the way of attrition. AGD, who was specifically mentioned above, was fourth highest in numbers in the fall and fourth highest in the spring. I'm not sure where you all are getting this attrition and retention stuff. Members graduated in the spring, which is desired, so where AGD or any other sorority started in 2024 depends on how many graduated, graduated early, etc... I'm not sure how anyone could make graduating, mush less graduating people early, a negative. You people are just trying to make something up.
