It looks like perhaps rec policies vary from sorority to sorority. It isn't a waste of time for ADPi chapters to receive info-only recs. I won't elaborate, as I feel that would violate confidentiality in our membership selection policies.
Every PNM must fill out an application to go through recruitment. Having a rec ensures their name is mentioned a second time, and has a chance for their name to stick out. I still think it is in a PNM's best interest to get recs. If they are info-recs, then they're info recs.
It's one extra step they have taken to prepare themselves. They feel better about themselves, it allows alumnae to be involved with the chapters they want to help and it gives the chapter an opportunity to take a second look at a PNM who's taken the time to get a rec and show she's rushing for the right reasons.
