I haven't read the TBSG thread yet, but I just wanted to throw in my $.02 about double-rushing here. My chapter is ususally working with 18-20 sisters at the most going into formal recruitment. During the first and second round, there are usually about around 25-30 girls per party. In this case, having 1-on-1 contact with a pmn is impossible. We've had even rounds where it was 3 pmns on 1 sister, which was completely out of our control. It's nothing against these girls and it's really hard to try to carry a conversation with 2 or 3 people at once and try to form an opinion about each individually, but sometimes that's the only way you can do it. We would be thrilled if we had enough sisters so that we didn't have to do this "bad rushing," as you put it, but in our situation and in many small chapters' situations, there is no way around it.

Ok, I'm off to read the TBSG thread now to see what the setup for this thread was...
