If the PNM does not share her GPA with me, or if I find out something I don't like, I just don't write the rec. If she has a low GPA & has a good reason for it, I ask for an explanation.

I, too, have been asked by various mothers to send a rec in for their daughter/niece/friends daughters etc. If I don't know the girl then I for sure require that the pnm some how get me a resume with picture that I can send in with my rec and mention that I don't know the pnm personally.
This helps the pnm know that they have that particular sorority covered. I mean a rec doesnt mean a bid but it sure cant hurt. And with the recruits own resume the chapter gets all of the information they need. (however it is usually the same "resume" they send in to panhellenic to sign up for recruitment)
If I don't know the recruit personally I mention that on the rec and mention whether or not I "recommend" her.
