Pledging sophomores or juniors
Many women have a curriculum that requires more than four years to graduate. Many more
women arrive at college with little or no information about sororities and decide to wait until
they are established in their studies before joining a sorority. Few Panhellenics actually
encourage upper-class women to participate in recruitment and join. Further, few are ever
asked to join. Some Panhellenics or chapters impose restrictions that actually discourage
these women from joining. The Conference urges each Panhelllenic to re-evaluate
regulations that discourage women from joining, no matter what their class in school.

Signing bid cards
For the past several years, Panhellenics have felt that they should discourage all PNMs from
selecting only one sorority when signing the Membership Recruitment Acceptance Binding
Agreement (MRABA). Although the intent of this idea is wise, the problem has surfaced
repeatedly when a young woman has either actually been instructed that she must list more
than one choice. This results in women being matched to groups that they had no intention
of joining, and in some cases, another woman was denied membership in a group where she
would have been happy. Please be sure that your Panhellenic is in agreement on how tocounsel PNMs on MRABA signing.

Thumbs up on both of these resolutions!
