Hopefully based on their RFM history they would have a reasonable expectation of how many girls they should invite, even if they aren't following RFM to the letter. And if houses are not being cool about the number of girls they're inviting, then Panhel would have to step in the following year. But I really think now that schools see the beauty of RFM they wouldn't do anything too out of whack.

This is a happy fairy land of a post. I'm sorry to say, a lot of chapters still only do RFM because they are forced to. There are chapters out there who wouldn't blink an eye at inviting 200 girls for 5 spots, because then they can say "we had 200 girls come to our party and they knew we only had 5 spots. This is how bad girls want us."
Either all out (strictly COB on your own, no Panhel involvement) or all in (like what violetpretty has talked about Maryland doing). I think at a school this big, with a rush this big, it's hard to do otherwise. Panhel thinks you're inviting too many girls and tries to "step in"? The chapter pulls out of spring recruitment. Unless it is something as essential as fall rush, that's what's going to keep happening, until the only groups rushing are the ones who need the numbers (which is what Panhel tried to prevent in the first place).
