All of the current members of the chapter know ahead of time that intake takes place in October (for example), and that if they know any unaffiliated women that they want to introduce to the sorority, that is the time to do it.

i kind of like this idea. it sounds like only the members of the org know that oct is the time to bring new pnams to meet the group. i would imagine if someone had a friend who couldn't go to the event in oct, that she could come to the event in nov and get introduced, too.

i think that may also be a great way to find our "lost" sisters!! i wonder how much of a turn out they get for interested pnams, tho.
as for the point about npc wanting to get a fair shot at the pnams, well, isn't one of the recommendations that we give to people that they only look at one group at a time? i seem to remember a post that if you are looking into xyz and abc at the same time, and it comes up at a alum panhel meeting (even if just in passing) then the pnam is likely to be dropped by both orgs bc she isn't serious about them.
