The lost 1/2 the house roughly. So my guess is around 40 people left. I keep thinking about this situation from a PNM perspective. If you can get beyond the probation issue then XO could be an amazing opportunity to make a house your own as the house today is small and will have to be grown and refilled. With this process of growing and refilling its possible (in theory at least) to mold the house to what the new and presumably larger class wants the house to be in the future. In effect the house is not the exact same as it was as 1/2 the people left and it will be driven into the future by the new members. As a PNM the situation is whether you will click with the remaining people in the house and are they people you can work with to grow the house in a possibly different direction over time. My understanding is that the house is under national supervision (this could be challenging situation) but my guess is that they want the house to survive and thrive as its one of the oldest chapters in the country and has been an integral part of the greek system at Cal forever. I hope some PNMs choose to support XO by joining and making a commitment to making sure we don't lose XO at Cal. I am not in the house but I have to say that its been disappointing from an outsiders perspective to watch what the national did to the house and how little honest dialog has happened with PNMs on the issue. There is a huge PR role here to be played and I'm not sure its happened effectively.
