Since the second weekend of rush was already taking place on a 3-day weekend due to the MLK holiday, I thought it was the perfect opportunity simply to use that Monday to adjust the schedule and still have the normal round of parties. Instead, the girls had their first invitational /12 party on Saturday, preference round/3 party on Sunday, and nothing on Monday. Bids were delivered (or not) on Tuesday. Does anyone know why panhel didn't or couldn't take advantage of that Monday? Just curious.
Please see post #119.

Having 4 rounds wouldn't have changed the final number of women getting bids. It might have shaken up who got bids a bit, but I don't think the number of rounds would have changed the final outcome of many women going bidless.
