calling all sororities
by: Numbers QueenOle Miss Greek life can't keep up with the demand! We NEED more sororities on campus so that pledge class sizes can become reasonable again! 170 (projected) in a pledge class is ridiculous! Has to be the biggest in the nation! Please, sororities, come to Ole Miss and colonize! you shouldn't bash them but welcome them!

Why would a sorority even want to colonize here- just to be called bottom tier, consistently bashed and blamed for every perceived mistake that other chapters on campuses far away make... why would they set themselves up to be "failures"-- honestly the sorority scene on this campus is so toxic I don't see why any good sorority would spend the millions of dollars it takes to come down here...

Should be Ole Miss Sororities have a poor retention rate. If quota is 170 than a sorority with no loss would have 680 members. According to the Ole Miss Academic Report Sororities list the following as members:
Chi O 407
DDD 383
DG 374
Phi Mu 364
KD 354
Those numbers reflect a horrible retention rate. That is a 40-48% drop rate over four years!!! Why is that? Fraternities have a much higher retention rate. Top tier fraternities have about about a 78% retention rate.

Kick Kappa out because they haze ... at Dartmouth.
In 2012 a female Dartmouth alumnus came forward about the hazing that goes on in Dartmouth sororities, and revealed her particular traumatic experience. As a sophomore rushing Kappa Kappa Gamma, Ravital Segal, who graduated in 2009, awoke in the hospital after being admitted to the ICU with a BAC of 0.339 – a 0.4 BAC leads almost exclusively to coma or death. She reports, “I was literally one sip of alcohol away from dying” and maintains, “to this day I have no idea what happened that night.” Two other pledges were also hospitalized for overdoses. Despite the sorority rituals of excessive drinking, Segal assured the administration that she had not been hazed, since it had been ‘her decision’ to drink; the sorority went unpunished. However, Segal has since voiced another reason she chose not to blame the sorority, not wanting to “incur the social ostracism that would surely follow.”

Delta Gamma doesn't know how to behave.
In April of 2013, a Delta Gamma sorority sister’s almost humorously vicious, insult-ridden email to her fellow sisters leaked and went viral. The impetus for the email was the sisters’ inability to participate in Greek Week duties, including schmoozing with their ‘matchup’ fraternity Sigma Nu. Among myriad other accusations, this sister attacked the girls of Delta Gamma of “LITERALLY being so f—king AWKWARD and…BORING.” She reminds them, “FRATS DON’T LIKE BORING SORORITIES.” Ultimately, the letter accuses the girls of socializing amongst themselves as opposed to making a good impression for their senior Greek partners and fraternity counterpart Sigma Nu.
After the email was released and gained significant notoriety, the sorority sister who sent it resigned. The sorority released an official apology for the scandal, stating, “the tone and content of the email was highly inappropriate and…should not reflect on any sorority woman in general or any fraternal organization at large.” If you’re curious, you can read the entire email here. If you’re offended by off-color language, though, you might want to skip it.

There's a huge difference between an established chapter with supportive alumni and strong nationals and a chapter colonizing at a school for the first time with obviously incompetent nationals. Please stop shooting down the wonderful sororities we already have!

More sororities doesn't mean more students. There would be the same number of students, but houses would have smaller pledge classes. Greeks get spread out among larger number of houses.
