I agree with #3 and think the round one parties are probably too short. 20 minutes for this all important cut seems crazy and I think that's about what we're talking about, especially if you're the last one in line at a party with 50 girls. At the really big campuses (15+ chapters) it should probably go to 3 days instead of 2. I know all the negatives on that and wouldn't fight to the death over it, but I'd sure hate to be the most popular chapter on campus right now, having to cut more than half of the girls going through, based on 3 members meeting a girl for 5 minutes each. Either that, or the rush application form needs to include an essay portion or video submittal!
But that being said, I think RFM is doing just what was intended. It seems the schools had some growing pains with it and had MORE girls dropping out of rush earlier, but after time passes and girls understand there are 15 (or whatever) good chapters there, they are learning to give more chapters a shot. At least it seems that way based on numbers.
Now we just need an RFM for member retention which seems to stink lately.
/edit Ooops, it appears there was an edit above me. I think my comment can stand alone, however.
