I don't think there is any magic number. I can't speak for other GLOs or campuses, but for me it's all about quality over quantity.
1 Rec submitted by an alum who knows the PNM well and thoroughly explains how this PNM would be an asset to our Chapter is plenty. I also take notice of Recs that come from active alums, whether it be with an Alum Assoc or especially if they are actively involved with a Chapter such as an Advisor or House Corp member. To me it shows that this alum continues to be committed to the ideals and success of our organization and therefore would probably not recommend someone who would not make a good member.
But 30 "FYI" Recs wouldn't impress me at all. Meaning "I barely know this girl and have no clue what kind of a person she is, let alone what kind of member she'd make. BTW here's her transcript, pic and resume that she gave me." Thanks for the info, but in my eyes they don't carry alot of weight.
