Our Panhellenic Alum Assoc. Was allowed to set up a table at the High Schools and had little pamphlets and reps from SOME of the sororities (Here we go again.) ANYway, they stopped doing it. When I brought it up to one of the officers, I was told it really wasn't a good idea. WHY??? Get ready...
First, these sororities were NPC. There are 2 High Schools in our area the ladies would consider visiting, the other HSs did not have the same "interest" level...
Second, they really didn't have the "manpower" to write recs for girls they didn't know and who perhaps, "weren't cut out for sorority."
Third, with all the discrimination suits, they felt they were opening themselves up if they didn't visit all the HSs.
Fourth, they want the girls who represent OUR area to be of the "highest caliber" so a rec from their association carries some weight.
They now drop of fliers at the offices, an announcement is made, anyone interested picks up the application and turns it into the association.

This is why, IMHO, information about Greek life should come from the **colleges** not from the GLOs themselves. Along with the fact that Greek life is different in almost every school you attend--according to dozens of threads on GC.
