Currently at JessLynn's school, PNMs only go to two chapters on Pref night. I think the hope is that by offering another chapter for Pref, that will give PNMs another opportunity to spend more time with a third chapter and potentially keep them open to accepting a bid from that chapter.

That is very interesting. It's been a two-pref system for more than ten years, and two chapters have left during that time. I don't know if it will necessarily change the number of girls who drop out or SIP, at least right away. I know there was an issue a few years ago with dirty rushing and chapters telling PNMs to drop out of rush and go through COB; I don't know if that's improved at all.
