These are also the schools where they put a maximum time length on the process and hopefully, that max time isn't 3 days.
Can you let us know what school? I'll be happy to research what rules they might really have in that regard.

I think it was that school in NJ (I'm blanking now) that made APO be on IFC and consequently a female APO member ended up as IFC president. It was definitely your first example - it wasn't an HBCU/NPHC issue.
