So in other words, the rushee doesn't actually SIGN a bid after the informational - she can go to the houses that offered her bids and then picks which one to sign and begin pledging at by the end of the week.
Kind of makes sense, I guess, in that the groups don't want to give out more bids than they have room for or encourage more women than they have room for, but if for some reason all (example) 10 women that ABC offered bids to decided to pledge at other sororities, wouldn't ABC be immmensely screwed and have to start all over again?
I'm assuming this system came into place to make things more binding for the sororities because one or more of the chapters was overinviting wildly and upsetting rushees when they ended up with no bid.
