I work with a really strong recruiting Chapter. For us quota additions are usually not a blessing. 9 times out of 10 QA's come from way down under and are used to maximize the placement of women into Chapters.

As for the struggling Chapters, I also agree that RFM typically gives them a lot of NM's who don't want to be there. I don't know how you fix that unless you let the PNM's not go to pref - which I think would be a better option for struggling chapters then to have them go to pref and not put them on their bid card. I would think you would want to have PNM's at your pref party who wanted to be there.

Finally, my advise to PNM's is always if you don't see yourself in that Chapter don't put them on your bid card no matter what Panhellenic says. Although, Panhellenic on many campuses instructs their counselors to tell the PNM's they HAVE to list them. I find this dishonesty to be the root of a lot of the problems with retention.
