That was my first reaction to the story, too. The consultant that was with my chapter when I was a pledge was from IU and I remember her comments about how rough recruitment was at her school, but I had no idea it was that bad. That seems awfully wrong and, actually, pointless to me. Why don't the sororities just all do informal recruitment if it's going to be such a waste of time for so many women? Does the process have anything to do with how the school handles housing? If the only point of formal recruitment is to fill an exact number of beds in the sorority house, either the recruitment process needs to be re-evaluated, a cap needs to be placed on applications, or the school needs to work out an arrangement with greek life regarding housing.
