If there must be some identifiable (negative) reason that a PNM is released from recruitment (as you have indicated), then why did your recolonizing chapter pledge them?
Surely ^this is not how you queried the girls who were released from recruitment, who subsequently pledged Delta Gamma following formal recruitment. Your chapter benefited from girls like SECglitter, who were released from rush, but who still wanted to be part of the Greek system.
I think that there are plenty of terrific girls who wind up being released -- many who do nothing specific, or negative, to cause their own release.
I thought GeorgiaGreek offered some great advice -- all the best to SECglitter.

Seriously? Are you still stalking Titchou from that other thread?
Nothing to do with SECglitter here, but just for the record, I was part of a colonizing chapter (of DG ironically enough) and over 90% of our pledge class did NOT go through formal recruitment. Of the 10% or so that did, it was pretty split between the girls being released and the girls removing themselves from the process.
Colonies are not just the "left overs" from recruitment -- though, for PNMs that slip through the cracks during formal recruitment, they can be a great way to step into the Greek system.
