We live in an area where many girls go to IU. I know now that Recs are seldom obtained. The girls seem to know that the really important thing is connecting with older girls from school and camp. Before I started learning more about SEC recruitment (I'm trying to educate myself because I do college advising and am coming to understand that what rush is like is a factor girls should consider) and never being in a sorority and living in the Midwest I had never even heard of recs! I recently witnessed a conversation between our neighbor a PNM IU student and her cousin who just joined an Alabama house. The southern cousin was incredulous that her northern cuz didn't plan on getting recs and freaked the IU girl out a little til she called her older friends who attended and was assured that recs were really and truly unnecessary. I find the whole thing very interesting. And definitely have learned about the importance of recs at some schools.
