But again, consider:
Many hundreds of girls are going through. You don't necessarily get to know all of them before you have to start cutting. Plus, you get an idea of which girls you may think are best suited for your chapter if you know a little bit about them.
Example:
Susie Q. may have been the biggest hobag in her school. She may very well change over the summer before college, but you don't want people in other chapters that knew her then thinking you have a pledge class full of skanks. Why? Because they will "let it slip" to other PNM's if they know you keep her during the week and definitely the next year.
It's happened here; a girl in XYZ "let it slip" that I definitely didn't want to keep ABC after first round because they were all cokehead sluts (not in that exact phrasing, of course, but definitely let it be known they were "fast" and had a drug problem). It's sort of a watching-your-back kind of thing.
