I was Panhellenic VP for my campus this year and I actually did talk to the girls who did not recieve bids and told them like it was;
"Sorry sweetheart t hey aren't saying that you're not a fabulous person because you are, and you're completely welcome to come out again next year but keep in mind that greek life isn't for everyone and you don't have to be a sister to hang out with these girls."

If someone said this too me i would be upset. The idea that i am still allowed to be friends with girls would make me feel like someone was saying, gosh we will talk to you, but you are not good enough for us to be close friends.

I know that its just me, but if it happened right after rush where emotions are running high i think that i would have taken it the wrong way. I would know now that a person has the best intensions, but sometimes even if a person is the nicest sweetest person in the world, things that person says can still be taken as an insult (or the wrong way) given emotionally high situations (any situation not just rush).

Just something to think about
