1) Is participating in formal recruitment a requirement for NPC sororities?

3) On your campuses, would/do/have Jewish sororities found it more beneficial to have a COB process than formal recruitment?
I KNOW we discussed this before, but I have no idea where.

1. No it is not required. There are a couple of campuses that I know of that a chapter that is new or newer or a struggling chapter does not participate.
2. I don't know the official answer, but it does happen on some campuses.
3. Yes and no. Of course, when I was in school, we had 3 traditionally Jewish sororities, all participated in Formal. Two of the three, at that time, always reached quota so COB was never a big issue unless they had members graduate or drop out. Since that time, only one traditionally Jewish sorority is still there and they do very well during formal. I do know that AEPhi at Miami University does not participate in formal, but they just restablished last year (I think).
