I know the reality of the numbers is ugly...I am from Indianas greek system. I do think, and this is only my opinion, that when you have such harsh cuts after the first round girls who might otherwise stick out future rounds become so discouraged they just drop and this is a detriment to the whole system. The strong well established houses continue to flourish, others miss out on great girls and the system as a whole doesn't grow.
In my perfect world I'd love to see a delayed recruitment where grade evaluation is potentially a more fair comparison..Iowa collegiate work compared to Iowa collegiate work. It also is far more reflective of which students are able to transition to work at a collegiate level. My daughter came from an extremely rigorous independent college prep school and had a great education. However, my heart was breaking for her and i certainly felt a great deal of frustration as my daughter is crying saying she wishes she hadn't done honors and ap so she would have had an easier course load and therefore better GPA.
