Yes, I know many think "the way we've always done it" works. If it does for a campus, so be it. But requiring all campuses to follow the same set of rules seems ludicrous. Better yet, IMO, would be to adopt the IFC rush model.
Ummm...they do this already. Schools with small systems do more COB type recruitment styles, but try doing this with 900 PNMs going to more than 10 chapters. It would be chaos, and it would never work. Each PHC gets to choose the recruitment method that works best for their campus. Don't knock it unless you really know how the system works. Try giving out multiple bids to more than a hundred women and see if anyone can figure out how many bids each chapter should give out. We all know that you had a different recruitment experience. It's great that it worked for your campus. That doesn't mean it would work for the majority of campuses.
