Hold on, here.....I think we need to step back and look at things in context. It's not fair to pull out one person's post from 2014 and use that as the sole example.
I went to the trouble of finding DubaiSis' post in the original thread. I found it and read to see to whom she was replying when she made the comment. It was a thread about the results of recruitment at Indiana University in 2014. Here is the post to which DubaiSis was replying. A mother appears to be upset because she heard about another girl who received a COB bid after recruitment. She felt that sororities should have been obligated to offer bids to girls who paid to go through recruitment.

In response to the girls that were offered snap bids - I know for sure one girl did not go through any of the recruitment process. She told everyone she was not interested in Rushing. She did receive a snap bid the day after snap bid. She did accept. She did not pay the Rush fee that my daughter and hundreds other paid and did not receive a bid. She did not travel back to IU early. to commit days visiting houses in the freezing cold.
Unfair is an understatement.
This chapter should at the very least be required to pick from the girls who went through all the hard work of formal requirement.

Why?
These are private organizations who can pick WHOEVER they want. Rush just makes the process of finding which girls they want easier. There is no contract that says they have to choose ANY girls through formal rush.

This comment makes WAY more sense now that it is read in context of the conversation. Here, DubaiSis appears to be making reference to the TIMING of when membership can be extended and not necessarily saying "sororities don't have to be open minded, but PNMs do."
