Why would sorority women publish a narrative that’s at best misleading and is sure to cause disappointment and even bitterness during recruitment?

Why not word it differently, something like “….while letters of recommendation are certainly not required, any sorority alumna is still free to submit one to her particular chapter on the behalf of a PNM…”. or something like that?

I taught freshman comp. on the college level and heard and saw many animated conversations between young PNM’s regarding their experience during after recruitment…both positive and negative. As flawed our current fraternity world is, I was grateful that our rush is much more simple and drama-free!
Please see my post above yours.
