From my understanding, Chi O will join the other chapters in the recruitment process and progress in the same way as the other chapters as well. Fall is GW's formal recruitment period, so I would imagine they would join the ranks ESPECIALLY because they are new. They need to take the formal recruitment period as a way of getting their faces out there since formal recruitment will "encourage" PNMs to attend their events and get them noticed.
Bigs and littles can vary between organizations, but the idea is that as a new member, you have one individual who will see to it that you acclimate to the chapter well, learn what you need to know as a new member, and basically be your personal ambassador to your new organization. Not to mention, many chapters shower their new littles with gifts throughout the new member period and look after you as if you were their biological little sister. It's a great comfort in any new organization to have a special person look out for you... and that's what the program encourages.
