spring recruiting
by: OU PAN
When I see these comments about spring recruiting I wonder who they are trying to convince. I see that my house is not going to spring recruit but we are actually taking two girls that we already know. We're not advertising it because we've already filled our spots, but we are not 10% over. Chi O had to snap bid for the last four years so unless they've spring recruited they are under total or have a bunch of girls who couldn't graduate on time. You can't take more than quota by snap bid. Many of the other houses mentioned (including the ones that they said are spring recruiting) took quota additions and so have cushion for girls who graduate early or leave for nursing school or other hsc programs.
Another thing. There is nothing wrong with spring recruiting. Some are required by inter-nationals if it is offered. Some are restricted to formal recruitment only and are not allowed to spring recruit. Maybe someone from a house that can't is trying to turn that into a virtue. If you get a bid to a house you like in the spring. Take it. There is nothing wrong with a house that gives bids in the spring.
So this is just a warning to anyone who cares enough to read this website. The information you see being commented here is often wrong and in fact intentionally misleading. My house is a perfect example. We're being lied about by someone trying to piggyback on our popularity. Don't believe it.

You are writing inaccurate things. The top houses do not spring recruit. They are not allowed too. All houses can take quota during fall recruitment,( which does not have anything to do with snap bids, I think you are the person who is always posting this, look up the definition, it doesn't apply at OU) if a house has 250 girls as fall recruitment begins and quota is 80, the house can take quota. If house total is 300 then these sought after houses will go over total by 30 girls. Houses over house total are not allowed to spring recruit. Their houses would continue to get larger than than other houses. Panhellenic doesn't want this to happen; it tries to strengthen all Greek houses. I do not know why you seem to be so bitter about spring recruitment. It gives houses not at house total a chance to get more members and takes the houses at total and above out of the competition. I do not represent chi omega but I do know their membership is currently well above 300 ( all house membership is public record). I only mention that house because you seem to slander it as often as you can without factual information. I also know all the top houses at OU are above house total, again it's public record.

The truth is that total is the average size of the houses -- approximately half will be over total and half under total. At OU where all the houses made quota, it is impossible that a house could ever be dramatically over the other houses in numbers. Most of the houses are around 80x4=320. While there is one house that loses quite a few girls because they drop out, the others have good retention and most of the top houses take a few quota additions too. (Example is Kappa. Quota was 80, they took 85.) Those houses will be above total even if they have girls that graduate early or go to do programs at the health science center in OKC. House totals are not public record like you said. I don't know Chi O's numbers, but if Chi O took only quota (which is all they could take with snap bids) then they might be exactly at total if they didn't lose any girls at all. I don't know if they've lost any or not but they may be under total. It's all speculative, of course, but it goes to show that the original post is correct. Spring recruiting has nothing to do with campus reputation UNLESS it is because of a retention problem like the one house.
By the way, before you start handing out legal advice, you'd better go to law school. Your "warning" is laughable at best and absolutely jackass stupid at worst.

My house isn't at total but we're not allowed to take new members except during formal recruitment - international rules. Sorry.

you might want to be "warned" slander and libel can be persecuted so it's a good thing the houses you constantly lie about don't care most of their nationals have really deep pockets and could pursue this but seems they don't care because your constant lies and misconceptions do not effect them.
