I believe if I put the matter to vote it would pass, but I worry what the reaction of our recruitment chairman would be. As stated earlier, he is my Big and one of my best friends. However, I believe it is in the best interest of our chapter (colony for now) to put this into place. The timing is bad though, as we meet on Sundays and spring rush starts the following Monday, so it would be quite hasty.
Just a word: I would talk to your Big privately, before you bring up the measure to change how bids are given. Explain to him how you feel and let him defend his ideas to you. Otherwise, it's going to look like you back-stabbed him in front of everyone.
