Great Points! To this I would just add - think of a rec letter like a letter of introduction. The ladies of the chapter would like to be the best hostesses possible to every PNM. It would be great if they could match PNMs with chapter members with similar interests and to make a connection or network - especially hard at a huge 1000+ person recruitment. That is what recruitment is for a lot of PNMS a chance to meet people fresh on a new campus.
Alumnae: Every little bit you can do to help the chapter helps!
PNMs: A rec is NOT a promise of an invitation, its your foot in the door. You wouldn't show up to a job interview without a resume? A rec letter shows that you take this seriously. That you are going the extra mile to do the best job you can - help your letter writers help you put your best foot forward.
