Dionysus, the only way you're going to be able to get to the bottom of this is to involve your senior officers in a face to face manner.

Who assigns the bigs with the littles? Query that person first, and if that person was aware of your desire to have a little and yet didn't bother to involve you in any of the matchups, then you need to escalate it to the officers.

In my case, it would be the Ritual chairperson who collects the pledges' preferred choices, then goes about assigning the bigs, then formally requests the bigs to accept their little. There have been cases in the past where the New Member Educators are desperate enough to have littles for themselves or their cliche in the group and thus do not remain neutral for the selection process. That is why we have a Ritual chairperson do it, the person has so far always remained neutral in the big and little process.

If that wasn't the case, then the VP of personnel would be involved to resolve an internal dispute.
