new 300 rule + cob

by: ..

These are the houses that are under 300 girls -

- Delta (33 girls under)
- SK (1 girl under)
- DG (16)
- Sigma (75 under)

So how does this affect COB? It looks like these houses are the only houses that can take girls given the new rule. So it seems Sigma is your best bet to COB because they're hurting numbers wise, followed by Delta and then DG. I doubt SK will COB if they can only take one girl.

My advice is starting hitting up your Delta or DG friends if you're looking to COB because SK probably won't put out the effort for just one addition and Sigma will take just about anyone.

COB is going to be a nightmare, all the girls fighting to get into DG or Delta. How is Sigma going to recruit an entire new pledge class in the Spring? They're in such trouble.

Keep in mind that houses have different ways of reporting girls - i.e., some houses, if you study abroad, consider it taking a semester off, so grades wouldn't be reported. And some houses are really lenient about taking semesters off for other reasons and that could affect their "total" on the grade report being different than their actual total. So they may be closer to 300 than it really seems (like DG might only need more like 5-6 girls or not even need any and SK likely isn't really under 300.) as far off as sigma and delta are, though, even with total being a little off for those reasons, they will still likely need to COB at least 15ish for delta and 50 for sigma

My roommate is an SK and they don't count girls who are abroad or taking a semester off towards their total count. So they are well over three hundred if you take those into consideration. DG as well is probably above three hundred or hovering around that number so I can't see them taking a Spring PC.

And honestly, I don't think Delta will either. I think their Nationals will push back against COBing. I think Sigma is the only shot. There's no way Sigma has seventy girls abroad or taking a semester off.

Most of tridelts chapters do COB, the only tridelts who think they're too good to COB at 260 girls is mizzou tridelt

If Sigma nationals decides that the chapter can't be saved, they'll probably just place the actives on alumnae status and recruit a brand-new chapter without pulling the charter. If they close and leave campus, they'll probably never be invited back, and it's a point of pride for Sigma to have a chapter at an SEC school.

Sigma Nationals will not deactivate this chapter, Mizzou will have to kick them out. Mizzou has the second largest rush in the Nation and Sigma is very small nationally. They can't afford to lose a chapter at such a large school.

Count Sigma out just yet -- about this time last year they had around 175 members vs. 225 now. Yeah, they suck at formal, but they seem to do pretty well with COB. Retention, on the other hand, is still an issue.
