Kappa Alpha Theta - ΚΑΘ Sorority Ratings at GWU

Literally a joke. My friend in theta says that they are so clique-y already and it hasn't even been a year. Your sisterhood is a joke, like 6 people have disaffiliated already. You should probably work on that if you go out and promote your "strong sisterhood"

So Theta took 88 girls with their first PC. If they only had 2 seniors graduate, and rumored 6/7 girls dropped or transferred, that puts them at around 80 girls at the start of this year. Judging by photos on their social media, they took 8 new members through COB. Total was set at 116 for the semester. Keep in mind, they're not under any obligation by GW Panhel to reach total, because some other chapters also aren't at total and have elected not to COB. Did 6/7 girls drop? Did they not extend bids to everyone who came to their events? None of us can know unless we're in Theta. However, this gets tricky with formal recruitment in the spring. RFM is based on historical return rates over the past four years, meaning the number each chapter is allowed to invite back each night is the average of their return rates for four years. Theta does not have any return rates, so they will have to invite back the maximum number of girls each night, which excludes grade risks but not much else. Quota in formal recruitment is based off of the number of PNMs attending prefs divided by the number of houses. If Theta's total is now at 88 and they don't extend any more bids this semester, they will need to extend far more bids than the other chapters to reach total. Between this and essentially needing to invite every PNM back each round, the next recruitment does not look bright for Theta.

Has a lot of promise, but they lost a lot of girls at the end of last year and didn't recruit that many through COB. Their inability to recruit and rumored cliqueyness should be of great concern to any PNM who considers them.

I'm a PNM who's friends with a few thetas and I'm just generally confused by them. There seems to be a big divide among them, and my friends seem to not like their social media presence (the whole hair bow/scrunchie thing, talking about getting dropped, etc). just seems like their sisterhood isn't cohesive.

Wide mix of girls, some extremely good looking and others less so. Pretty involved on campus for a new chapter. Unfortunately, a small (but very vocal) minority of these girls bash other sororities and have really hurt Theta's reputation. While they have the potential to become a solidly middle tier sorority within the next year, they have a lot of work to do to in order to recruit enough girls to not only get up to chapter total but also to boost their reputation. Seems pretty cliquey.

Reject PNM's who are doing a great job of alienating the rest of the Panhellenic community. Its a shame because we were all excited for their colonization and chose theta and now they all bank on 'not being sorority girls'. Please, every sorority at GW is atypical for a usual sorority. You guys are nothing special. Best thing about them is they'll give phi sig a social boost.

They're new, need to work their way up. I feel like recruitment is going to be hard for them since they got a lot of rejects this year

Messed up big time with their colonization. They have some cute girls & have had a few mixers, but if they want their image on campus/for PNMs to be what they put out on social media, they're going to have a tough time getting rid of their "reject" label. Several members on their chapter instagram have openly admitted to being dropped during recruitment and COB. They also said they wanted to recruit to chapter total and took like 80 girls. Doesn't really paint their chapter in a positive light.
