suzy88, some PNMs don't maximize their options. Others do. The importance and meaning of "maximize your options" is explained over and over and over throughout the entire recruitment process. This particular poster's daughter chose to drop out of recruitment rather than attend any Preference parties. That was her choice. It is not heartbreaking. She had three chapters who were interested in her. She didn't like her invitations. She ended the process. That can happen on any campus. That is an example of "mutual selection".

Regardless, at Indiana, there ARE women who maximize their options, go through Preference, and still do not receive a bid. That is heartbreaking.
