The impetus for the Reference Revolution was not chapters like the one I work with -- which received a sum total of 6, yes 6, references last year. It was intended to help chapters who are inundated with recommendations manage/streamline what had become a mountain of overwhelming paperwork, and to help alumnae submit references efficiently. Why would anyone insist on being the snowflake PNM or PNM mama who won't get with the program that will help these chapters and alumnae? That just makes you stand out in a negative way -- no matter how coordinated your stationery is.

This system will be more efficient for chapter members. Without giving too much away, there are new questions on the reference submission that will be helpful...such as adding a PNM's social media links. This will be helpful for all chapters.
