The difference between someone who's invited back and who is released can be pretty random.

2) When I was a collegiate, "double-rushing" was always an issue for my chapter: we would frequently have a few PNMs each round who had to be doubled up with another PNM because we didn't have enough sisters for conversation. With RFM suggesting that smaller chapters invite back even higher percentages of PNMs, I think Greek Advisors NEED to include break parties (for PNMs, not for chapters) to ensure that the smaller chapters can actually handle their PNMs effectively.
I've double and triple rushed...not fun, neither for the rusher nor the rushee (to use the un-p.c. terms).
I like that Alabama and schools with big numbers are not only doing two Round 1 days, but adding extra parties to lower the number of PNMs at each party.
