Even at the smaller school of La. Tech, AXO INSISTED on a rec. The good news is-if they really liked you, they would get their advisor to write one. In a large, competitive system, this would not be feasible.
However, be careful-our lovely town's alumnai assoc. said DG-DZ-ZTA and Pi Phi and KAT did not need a rec. This was HOGWASH!!! That would have meant that any girl who did NOT have a rec for those sororities would have been cut AUTOMATICALLY!
Just cover your proverbial butt and do what the NORM is for your school. Consider a rec a letter of introduction and ONE never hurt a soul! (TOO many is nothing more than redundant)
