Ideally the other PNMs in a recrutiment group or in the dorm will never be on the phone or IMing with friends or biological sisters already in sororities, and would never talk to mothers who are alums.

I just wanted to 2nd this- I am sure we all have heard stories similar to this- my best friend's cousin is 5 yrs younger than me, she went to my alma mater. Her freshman year I took her cousin to an early season b-ball game @ my school and we met up w/ her cousin. I asked how her 1st semester was going & if she was going to rush- she said yes, and asked if I had been in a house, I told her my affiliation and she said "Oh" then told me that she was really only interested in a few chapters and named them- none of them being mine. I told her that she should go into rush with an open mind because you never know.
Sure enough spring rolls around, she goes through and she accepts a bid to my chapter. I was a little surprised, but happy to call her my sister.... still it caused me to chuckle and think a little bit of "what if..."
