If they were cut for grades, or an extraneous commitment, I see no problem with them AIing. If they were cut for character, I certainly do. For example, tinydancer is a GC AI, who I supported throughout her process. She is an excellent example of what the AI process SHOULD be used for.
If our chapter at Purdue thought a woman was unworthy of Gamma Phi Beta 20 years ago, that is their decision and I support them in it. AI should not be a back door for women cut in college. It is an avenue for membership for women who did not have the opportunity in college because of work, sports, family obligations, etc.
I am appalled that people on GC encourage women who were cut 3-4 times to AI. It happens. Read some of the stories in this forum.
