Oh absolutely. I don't even think the majority of my chapter knows what a rec is. I'm talking about SEC, certain Big XII schools, etc., schools where recs are very important.
Maybe when they say "it is the chapter's responsibility to secure a rec" include "with hundreds of potential members, chapters will not have the time to find a rec for everyone, so it is to your advantage to secure your own".
