Personally, we get so many great girls through COB that I'd prefer to skip formal rush altogether (super stressful and emotional time for all involved) and just COB year-round.

Exactly....this is how it was at my university. We were one of the "weaker" sorroities at formal recruitment, but we knew how to COR women very effectively....for example, we've had a Alpha class of 0 women through formal recruitment (after what we thought was a darned good FR, too!) and picked up 10 women through COR which was the exact same number as quota from FR. The pressure is off, and like S&S said, these women can come to activities that we've already planned and see how we REALLY act when we're not in "recruitment mode".
