I don't really think that it is up to the campus panhells to "even the field" I think it is the responsibility of the chapter and the national. I was upset when I saw a nationally strong GLO get "recolonized" by their national, and they got to have their own little mini rush by themselves after Formal recruitment in the spring. They had national reps going to each Rush Group at Formal Recruitment basically telling the girls that if they didn't get their first choice, to drop out of Rush, and come to their Rush later. Lots of girls who went in blindly wanting letters dropped out of Rush, denying themselves from learning more about other GLOs on campus that may have been the place for them. And to think we were all about helping them out, adn wore buttons around campus advertising their "mini-recruitment", I always said it would bite us in the ass. And then we had the opposite problem, Our chapter was large (55-60girls) compared to our other national chapters, but we were small on our campus. Our nationals couldn't quite help us out, b/c they were geared to helping small chapters. Eh we figured it out I suppose.
