Currently, campus TOTAL is 288. Any chapter with less than 288 members is eligible to COB. Some chapters choose not to. Chapters who are smaller than 288 can use COB to get bigger - thus they will take the opportunity to COB to add more members. Despite transfers, members who drop during their new member period for whatever reason and December graduations, some chapters still are larger than 288 and cannot COB. COB is a good thing - allowing chapters to gain wonderful new members from the pool of women who were not comfortable in formal recruitment, who fell thru the cracks, who recently transferred to campus or who didn't realize they wanted to be Greek. QUOTA is the number that Panhel sets as the size of the new member class after formal recruitment. It is the same for all sororities each year but may be different each year. A tip - When grades are posted for fall 2013 on the greek life website, check chapter size of each chapter. If the size is below 288 they probably are going to COB for spring 2014. If it is slightly above 288 - say up to around 295 - it is possible they will COB a few new members spring 2014. If they are well above 288 then they likely will not be participating in COB.
