Depends on that group's policies. The process that she describes is more familiar to me than many I've read in this forum. Potential AIs in Pi Phi are 'presented' on paper by their sponsor to the club. They may or may not already have a collegiate chapter sponsor at that point. They do not come to any events or meetings. Yes, most, if not all, of them are known to other members and often are mothers or sisters of members. Personally, I find it "bizarre" to have someone come to an event as a potential AI when there is a chance that she won't be accepted. It's one thing to go through collegiate recruitment that way, but we aren't 'recruiting' AIs. If one of my club members says this woman would be a good volunteer, I take her word for it.
