If not - I know we have the right as GLOs to be picky - but the smaller groups couldn't find ANY of those 50 girls that met criteria?? The only other reason I could come up with is that those 50 were all under GPA requirement.

No no no no!! Barely ANY of them went through recruitment. The girl who started the second group wasn't bid and asked the 6-8 or so other girls not bid if they wanted to form some sort of interest group. It expanded from there with a Facebook group with freshman who have not been permitted to go to recruitment yet [deferred rush] and other girls who have never gone through.
Round 1 is mandatory; round two is not. We don't do invites to round 2, so they can choose whichever parties they wish. We tell girls if you don't go to all four, it's probably gonna bite you in the butt. Next round is pref; they can choose up to two, and we still recommend not suiciding. This was also informal recruitment, so girls who were pref'd are *not* guaranteed a place on a bid list, as they usually are for formal.
