how many girls each house lost

Very important.

Bump

I'm going to,throw some water and reality on the logic of this.

It's not that high retention isn't admirable, but here the reality:

1. It does NOT result in lower dues. Look at he numbers and some of the most expensive houses have the highest retention rates. This factor - retention versus costs - seems to actually be more reversed that related.

2. There are 375 plus girls in the houses. Honesty, you will have a very close frienship with a handful. Let's say five. That core group will have ties to two or three other groups. And you will have a large social,connection to maybe 50 girls. You will know your entire pledge class by name. There will some girls you don't even know who are more than a year different than you.

Point is - drops and retention don't really upset this. Your close friend drops junior or senior year, you'll still be friends. A group decides to rent a house and that the meals aren't worth the expense, they may drop the house, but remain close to each other and their other close friends. Many will still have the ties to some in the house. Etc.

Yes, it may be a big deal to some who want to return to Alabama town X who still have to see their friends who stayed in the house at Church, and thus face some shame.

But for many, this isn't a measure of enjoyment or lack of enjoyment of the experience while you were there.

It's simply a measure of who wants to continue with the house, eating meals there, paying the dues and finding Greek life and events worth it as juniors and seniors.

Nothing wrong with that, but not necessarily a measure of happiness. \n\n\n\n\n

Bump!

How or why is the ADPi number so high?

Facts don’t lie. AGD on top!

There is NOT Pne person at Bama who would rate houses anything like this list.

This is a list of how many girls left each house, and nothing else.

True, But there is a difference in a house where very few members leave and a lot of members leave. PNMs should be aware.

On the other hand, with so many spots to fill, probably a lot fewer releases.

IS loosing 30ish or more normal? How is this not a sign of something being off when the best numbers are in the teens? Like how can an ADPi be known for a no drama sisterhood on greekrank but lose 90 members in a year. How can a kd or xo say they are better than AXO or AGD but lose like twice as many actives during the year to drops?
