If a PNM who goes through formal rush recieves a bid, but chooses not to accept, she cannot "rush" ADPi when they have their interviews in early March.
The only problem I could see with this is that this could greatly, greatly cut down on the amount of girls that ADPi would actually be able to take. Assuming that they had a good bid matching program, most girls probably will end up somewhere, and I'm willing to guess that a good number of the girls that are dropped are probably feeling some bitterness towards the Greek system. This could leave them with a relatively small number from which to choose, which puts them at a disadvantage.

I'm only saying this because I was a member of a colony and I went through formal recruitment. ZTA made a presentation at kickoff night, and then the rest of the week proceeded. I ended up dropped from recruitment, but I was the only girl in my 65 person pledge class that was in that situation. 3 dropped from recruitment, and the rest just never were interested in any of the other groups.
