One of my closest friends is a recent alumna of chapter D at UNA. We were actually talking about this very subject the other day, that the Gamma Chis basically tell the PNMs that they have to rank both of their preference choices. They don't know that they can only rank one or are strongly discouraged not to. She was like, "Well, they discourage it because only 10% of the girls who suicide get what they want." That stat seems a little off. It seems like a scare tactic to "trick" PNMs into ranking both choices when they only want one.

It seems like a disservice to the PNMs for being bound for a year (though chapter D is usually the only one that does informal recruitment), but also to chapter D. My friend told me that a few years ago they MATCHED quota (25ish) but only 9 of them "ran" (accepted). How deflating to get your hopes up!
