totally agree with 33 and little e.

greek life is not utopian or politically correct. pretending that recs. are not required is wrong. i think it is unfair that before recruitment, panhellenics do not spell out in black and white that it is "highly recommended that pnms obtain letters of recommendation from alumnae".

at ultra large recruitments, it is just so easy to cut a girl with no rec., rather than to have someone phone someone in her hometown to see if they know her, and ask them to write a rec. why work that hard, when you already have hundreds of girls to chose from who do have a rec. for your chapter? a pnm would have to be someone pretty special to work that hard for.

jocelyn, i think it is to be pol. correct. i would venture to guess which ones you are speaking of...if at least one of them is one of the ones i am also thinking of, you are so right...if you don't have recs. to most of the sororities on that campus, you will be cut.
