Thank you for posting this! I'm a PNM for University of Alabama, and I also know barely anyone in a sorority. I'm in the process of finding my recommendations and making headway, with three already. However, my question, (and if this is an obvious answer my apologies :o ) if some of my recommendations come from alumni members who I do not know will they not count? I heard they will be thrown in the trash or discredited because they're not personal enough. But I don't know. anyone have information on it? Much appreciated :)

They all count. No recs get thrown away, but they are better if they come from women that actually know you. Many times the women who fill out your recs will take time to get to know you so they can make them more personal. To actually throw a rec in the trash would be a huge slap in the face to the sisters who took the time to fill out these much needed forms for our chapters at schools like Bama.

To the top!
