Who stays in a house and why or why not drives the issue of retention. Its a super important issue for many reasons but its a good indicator of how people feel about their house and sisters. People dropping is rarely a good thing but it does happen due to financial issues (houses are expensive especially those the charge full dues etc. for junior year abroad), poor fit, academic challenges, and other sisterhood issues. To PNMs I wish that as you go through the houses try to get a feeling about not only how you are being treated but how the sisters are treating each other. Respect of each other, as well as respect of guests/PNMs, is super important. So many comments in the dorm last year revolved around these issues as PNMs didn't feel consistently respected by the houses which was very sad and disappointing to hear. I think these stats should be available and I'm not sure why we don't trust the members of our system to use the information to improve and grow in a positive way. Secrecy is always a bad thing and unfortunately, this is a 'secret' in our system. Its not really a secret as people talk. You just have to listen to what is being said.
