I think that overall, it results in better placement. You've had a semester to see what the sororities are like outside of rush. Yes, there might be more tent talk, but the advantage is if a girl decides to join the "geeky chapter" or "fat chapter" - she knows that's the stereotype she's going to have to contend with. It won't blindside her. Rather than feeling as though she's been tricked, she'll more likely to want to go out and prove people wrong. On the other side of that coin, the partying chapter can't fake clean up their act for a week and attract girls they have nothing in common just for the sake of getting their GPA up. If they want to change, they have to TRULY change.
Yes, there are girls who decide they only want to join one group. Sometimes with good reason (they become friends with many members), sometimes with no reason. That happens in first semester rush too.
The key is normal interaction. Make friends with freshmen women because you like them, not necessarily to end up bidding them.
