I do not think anyone should have to make lemonade out of lemons. If PNMs feel this way towards a chapter they shouldn't accept a bid, the chapters deserve more than this.

As far as "taking what they can get". Why are PNMs advised to rank some chapters last because they invite almost everyone back. My daughter visited three chapters, and her observation was that it was a disjointed membership in each and none which she connected. She removed herself from the process. This was the right thing to do for her and no house should settle on a membership comprised of pledges who settled because they had no other choice.

The only real choice in this "mutual selection" process for the PNMs is to decide whether they want to settle for a chapter they felt no connection with or forgo Greek Life and yet they are criticized for this.
