On my campus, there's no fee to go through recruitment, thus I guess they're looking at it as a chance to meet people? I don't know. As recruitment supervisor, I was annoyed that I had to deal with the hassle
. Our campus no longer allows holdovers, as only one chapter on campus did that, and it was when we had recruitment in the fall, so it was to see what college grades the women posted. Now we've been moved to a deferred recruitment, so all (except like 3 transfers) had GPAs from this school before recruitment.
