But are they necessary to advance in rush and/or receive a bid?? (I know I'm asking TMI, just pointing up your wording). I mean, I know there are DG chapters at IUP and Penn State and I have a VERY hard time believing that the majority of those rushees have recs before rush starts. They just aren't used a lot in these parts and if your girls were restricted to only rushees who had recs, the chapters would be screwing themselves.

Because the PNM sucks and she doesn't want to put her name on something recommending her?
Because she doesn't know the PNM from Adam and she doesn't want to recommend someone who she knows nothing about?
