On the one hand, CPC recruitment is totally apples and oranges compared to NPHC, and part of the Rho Chis' job is to help PNMs avoid focusing on just one GLO (which is exactly what any successful NPHC aspirant did). On the other, no one could be more unbiased about the CPC sororities than someone not a member of any.
Being a Rho Chi DEFINITELY does NOT = being "a leader in the CPC community." Many times, Rho Chis get encouraged to do it by their sorority because they suck at rush or are not that cute. Or else they are self aware enough to know they suck at rush and are more of a hindrance than a help at their GLO's parties.

This all being said, Rho Chi isn't an "award" you get for being the most involved in Panhellenic or the Greek community as a whole. Ideally, it's something that the women most qualified for the position (i.e. very empathetic and realistic) will end up doing.

As far as the ZPhiB sister being a Rho Chi, that's as odd to me as...hmmm...a Pi Phi planning AKA's next rush event would be.
