adjusted numbers w/ axo

by:    

Will quota for the other houses be lowered so xo can get more pnms this year? Like will axo be trying to give bids to 100 girls and the others 70?
When a new house comes, do more girls end up dropping completely?
Anyone know how all this will work? And where do we go for axo during recruitment?
Sorry, for all questions.

Not at all. Quota is never predetermined. It is a simple formula: the number of pnm's signing cards after prefs is divided by the number of sororities and that's quota. It is the same number for every house, but some houses will end up taking more in order to place every eligible pnm. This is called quota plus and it guarantees a bid to every pnm who ranks both her pref houses, even when it puts a house over quota. If you have two pref houses and only rank one of them you are not guaranteed a bid; you may get one or not. If you only have one pref house and you put them on your card you are getting that bid. When a new sorority comes on it simply reduces the new member class sizes for all houses, which is the whole point of adding a sorority. After recruitment, there will be an adjusted house total, and any chapter under that amount can offer COB bids to get their membership number up to house total. So everything this year is all good and positive and a win-win for pnm's and sororities.

It sounds like the OP was asking about variable quota, but that's not happening, right?

There is a difference between Variable Quota and adjusting the RFM numbers. The RFM will be adjusted to account for an additional sorority, Quota would be the same for all houses, and while some houses always take more due to Quota Additions, there would ideally be a large number of pnm's taken to pref by the new sorority and then a larger new member class for them through Quota Additions. I hope plenty of pnm's give AXO a good chance because it's truly unique and special to be able to influence your chapter at its very beginning.

Does that mean houses will be required to cut more girls every round than what they normally would because AXO is a new house? Like if XO normally cuts 300 of the 850 for round one, would they need to cut 350 or more for go greek this year?

AXO will not be handing out bids to anybody they can get. That's not their strategy for building a new chapter. They will be selective and will focus on quality over numbers, and build over time.

Please give axo and pbp a chance. All houses succeed when ALL of the houses succeed! Great girls in every single house at State.
