One of the ex-hostesses was saying that they purposely only picked good looking women to encourage the young recruits to believe that there were tons of good looking women who would be interested in them when they arrive at the university. Other past disgruntled ex-hostesses were mentioning the fact that they recruits were overly affectionate towards them.

This doesn't surprise me at all. I attended the University of Maryland, and I remember being approached at the gym about joining the Football Boosters (I can't remember what the official name was). It sounded interesting, and I was planning on joining, until a friend of mine told me that they look for pretty, thin/fit girls (I guess why they were recruiting at the gym) to be "groupies" for the football team and the incoming players. Our football players act like they should be getting NFL-type status and recognition on campus, esp from girls, and they didn't even start winning games until the past couple of years. When I realized that "Football Boosters" was the p.c. term for getting pretty groupies for the recruits, I definitely started deleting every email they sent to me about meetings, etc.
