Pref Day Question...

[scdigger]

We've been trying very hard to understand the process, but just really have not been able to completely get a grasp on it...

Daughter got her two pref day invites this morning. One is a sorority she loves. The other was one she said she would not accept a bid from. She'll, of course, go to both parties, but at the end of the day, does she still rank them 1 and 2 knowing she would not take a bid from 2? Or just put down her #1? Is that the suicide that we read about? And what are the implications of doing that?

Thanks for any feedback.

I was discussing that on a thread earlier, something like RFM-bids. These are her options after prefs:

1. List both, knowing she could get a bid from either.
2. List only the one she loves, knowing she could be released from recruitment tomorrow morning if she doesn't make that sorority's list.

Sometimes a girl will get a call asking if she'll accept a bid from a third group. Sometimes she can get an open bid later on or she can rush in the spring.

Here's the earlier thread, created in response to questions from some women in the SEC. The 4 women I know suicided; 3 were at the same school and had the same 2 sororities left. None knew each other.

Of the 4, 1 got a bid; the other 3 were released.
