A message to CU Panhellenic

by: jadedgirl

I, like many many girls this fall was left absolutely heartbroken by this year's fall rush.

I put my heart and soul into being in a sorority and was sorely disappointed. I understand that there were simply not enough space for everyone and thats fine.

I urge you to please learn from your mistakes and to cap the amount of girls allowed to sign up for rush. Yes, people will get dropped and will drop thats part of the process but if you are going to promise that everyone will find where they belong you need to play your part as well.

if there are 9 houses and room for around 150 girls per PC, you cannot allow almost 2000 girls to rush, you need to put a cap on it. ESPECIALLY now that Rush is more popular and Prime put us on the map.

Please, for the sake of the girls that come after me, limit how many girls can sign up.

So if each pc is around 100 girls on average total new members would be 900 in all houses (100 girls x 9 houses). That means literally more than half of girls end up w/o a house if there are 2000 girls that go thru rush at cu?

Well, it’s more like 120 girls per pledge class and is there any confirmation that 2000 girls actually rushed last year? Where did that number come from? Let’s have some real data before we start saying that there’s only a 50% chance of getting a house. Let’s not start scaring everybody.

I don’t think op was trying to scare anyone, but pnm’s have to manage expectations. I think the 2k number from last year was from panhel(?) Can someone confirm how many girls went through rush at cu last year?

So 1809 pnm's is another 20% increase over last year which was already sh&t show. If quota is moved to 140 (which would be insane) that means 1260 girls could receive bids and roughly 1/3 of girls (1 in every 3 girls) going thru rush won't go greek b/c they either drop or get dropped.

Just to put this in perspective, Bama had 2500 girls go through rush and they have 19 sororities (more than double the 9 houses that CU has). CU Panhel and the houses in Boulder are not equiped to have 140 new members in a pc. Learn from your mistakes last year CU Pahel!!!!

wtf- i can not believe cu panhel didn't cap recruitment! Last year's pc's were some of the biggest in the nation behind Alabama and Arkansas. Houses are going to have to have their chapter meetings on their front lawns. Our houses are not equiped for this!

The sad thing is that too many girls will entirely miss out on the greeklife experience because they think they are a Tier one pnm vs a Tier two or even a Tier three girl. Get over yourselves pnm’s! Greek life is amazing no matter what house you are in and tbh you will prob look back with regret if you miss out on this experience. Sorry, but it has to be said.

as a rg i’m really not suppose to be on here, but pnm’s i would grab whatever you can get this year! Every single house is going to level up based on the number of pnms this year!

Houses have up to 17 parties today. You know how exhausted pnm’s (and actives) are going to be going to parties that start at 12 am? This all good have been avoided if cu learned from their mistakes and capped recruitment like girls begged for last year!

The system, which is not equipped for this, has crashed. PNM’s don’t know where to go or what time their parties are!

Now pnm's are being told their only opportunity to vote will be from 1:10 am-2:00 am and if they don't vote during this window they will be dropped.

So there is a Party 20 today from 11:50 am-12:20 am and Party 1 which had to be rescheduled is from 12:35 am to 1:05 am and if u don’t vote by 2:00 am you get dropped? This is a disaster
