Some of the chapters at my school used to do the same thing. Then one year it went way overboard. Quota was 15 when there were only 29 PNMs attending Pref and 3 chapters amongst which to divide them. Kappa didn't get any bids that year, because all the PNMs got their first choices. So to fix that, they switched the way quota is figured. It used to be the number attending 2nd set divided by 3; now it's the number attending Pref.

This has only served to make the dirty rushing even more creative. One chapter in particular casually suggests that girls suicide, because if they don't get bidded out via the preference system, they'll be picked up in COB the following week. Of course the girls who are dirty rushed will never say that, because they buy into it and would never tell on that chapter. We took steps to reduce total so that this chapter could not do that, but we were defeated in the measure. So now Panhel's imposing a one-week waiting period between FR and COB. I'm not sure what that will do, whether it will help. Should be interesting.
