I most certainly am sorry to hear how poorly you guys feel about college panhellenics. As a current secretary who is in the middle of the pre-recruitment process, I assure you that we are more than capable of being discreet and handle the objectives of our council in an unbiased manner. I deal with names, numbers, and personal info on a regular basis and my only goal is to help these women find the sorority that is best for them. Not to get them to join mine or to be a snoop or to ruin some other chapters. We are on disaffiliation right now and I barely contact my sisters as it is. I'm not disagreeing or agreeing with your positions. But I am going to ask you to have more faith in your campus panhellenics. If you don't have any faith in those who organize and run your recruitment and who are upholding the laws of the NPC, then what the heck is the point of the NPC or the recruitment to begin with. And if you can't trust them, then question the elections/officers!

Whoa, slow down, you're taking this personally. I never said I didn't have faith or trust campus panhellenics. I was pointing out that if one doesn't send their rec to their own sister or chapter, that there is more likely a possibility of someone who is not a member seeing what many of us believe is membership selection, or as someone else said, it getting lost. I know in my office that there is one person who handles mail distribution, and unless it is marked "personal" or "confidential" it is open and sorted before it gets to that person. Maybe there is a non-greek student working in the office because every office is different, the point is, if it isn't sent directly to the org and in care of someone else, there is a potential it won't be private anymore.
