So wrong. Just another non-sorority pretender spouting total crap from reading some stuff on greekrank and then vomiting it out incorrectly, sick of you people. Bids in recruitment have absolutely nothing to do with membership numbers going into recruitment or year to year retention of members. Those are not the 'retention rates' that figure in recruitment. Quota Additions and the whole RFM system account for the differences in the numbers. While Quota is the same for each chapter, some will take more because of the guarantee that any pnm who ranks both her pref houses will get a bid to one of them, even when it puts a chapter over Quota. So that accounts for chapters taking more than Quota, it's for the pnm's benefit, not the chapters'. And then RFM requires the chapters that are stronger recruiters/more highly desired, the ones that can count on a higher retention rate of pnm's from round to round, to release more pnm's. Those chapters have fewer pnm's at each round while others with a lower recruitment retention will have more. The result is the same Quota across the board but more pnm's ending up at some houses for pref than others and so those are the chapters that end up with more Quota Additions. And just BTW sororities are NOT businesses. Businesses have owners that invest for ROI. Sororities do not have owners or investors, do not generate ROI, and are tax-exempt because of this; they are not-for-profit social clubs. And each chapter is its own individual entity with the only "model" being to sustain membership and housing appropriate and relevant to the individual school campus and its current operating panhellenic Total. Shut up and sit TF down.
