Ok so last night one of my friends said she was going to go through rush, but she wasn't going to pledge. At the University she is attending (private, noncompetitive) she has many friends already in the XYZ chapter. She said she didn't want to take anyone else's spot that really wants to pledge and was asking me and a girl that is an XZY at her school when she needed to drop out. We said after pref as then you will not technically take someone else's bid. However, after I thought about it I realizedyou are taking someone else who really wants it at every part you attend, because of RFM. I've also seen people on here post about their friends who are just rushing with no intention of accepting a bid (yes I know this often doesn't turn out this way

, but anyway I was just wondering why a girl would want to go through recruitment if she was hard pressed at not joining a sorority? Thoughts and clarification is greatly appreciated
