At a REALLY competitive school, the chapters probably rely on the PNMs to provide their own recs. Not having a rec is an excuse many chapters (at the competitive schools) might use to justify making a cut, especially if they need to make significant (50%+) cuts. I think that PNMs should make themselves familiar with the Greek culture on their prospective campus prior to recruitment to determine if a rec is required, recommended or not necessary.
If I were a PNM at a competitive school, I would not want to rely on the chapter hunting down a rec for me. I think that the chapter would be more likely to give "my spot" to someone who had took the initiative to secure their own rec.
