Can anyone shed light as to why the NPC is going to such great lengths to promote this idea? In other words, why do they continue to take the stance (and thereby impose that stance on all individual chapters) that PNMs securing a rec for themselves is a bad thing? As we have said on her hundreds of times- the rec is a similar thing to a reference when applying for a job. Why aren't we encouraging such a thing for all the PNMs instead of lying to them?
Yes, I understand that there may be Patty PNM from Podunksville USA who may not know any PQRs. However, if we abandoned this silly system where "the chapter is responsible" (when we all know that many, many competitive schools are not going to reach their necks out for a Patty PNM from Podunksville that none of them know anyway) and changed the entire mindset to better develop channels for those girls from rural areas to obtain a rec, wouldn't that be a win-win system all around? The PNMs aren't disillusioned that they don't need a rec, and the chapters will have more recs on PNMs that they might not otherwise know about. And it is all done in an honest format, out in the open?
I recognize that there are those with far more NPC experience than I serving as delegates, so clearly I must be missing something. I do mean this as a sincere question, not some sort of sarcasm. Anyone? Please explain?
