That's the silliest thing I've ever heard even though I realize at some colleges that's the way it is. We all (NPC) complain that there's not enough time to really get to know the PNMs or that the way we recruit is so fake. Then, trusted people, our sisters, let us know about a PNM and our chapters would be willing to cut her for that?!?
If a PNM is very quiet during recruitment, sometimes she is perceived as being aloof, disinterested, snooty, etc. If her rec(s) let you know that, you would react to her a little differently. You wouldn't get on your high horse as easily, and you would probably give her a second chance. If a PNM bowls you over, but her rec(s) all say to be careful, don't you think you'd like to have that clue instead of being swayed by a short conversation?
Although IMO
requiring 5 recs is a little excessive, if that's what Greek Life at a particular college recommends, then you better believe I'd be doing my best to procure 5 recs!
