Besides, with guaranteed placement, I could decide on day 1 that I want to be an XYZ. I am a huge bitch at every chapter except XYZ, and I get dropped everywhere else. So I get one pref invite, I attend, and I am guaranteed a bid to XYZ. I haven't exactly maximized options, have I?

I'm thinking of those women who do maximize their options, don't decline any invites they don't have to, haven't focused their attentions on only one sorority and been total b!tches everywhere else, but just happen to fall out at the tail end of the second bid list of each sorority they pref. Someone has to be the last person on the bid list. It does suck that they go bidless, but there are snap bids and COB - not getting a bid during FR isn't the end of the world.
I should note that my school does use quota additions to try to place at least a few women who don't match via regular bid matching.
