FWIW, my group was one of the cheaper ones on campus, and that did attract some women - however, I don't think anyone pledged solely because of the money issue. National dues factored in, and had we had a different type of women, dues probably would have cost more, if that makes any sense.

The spouse analogy doesn't really work either, in fairness to Low C, especially if you are talking about a recruitment that occurs mainly for freshmen before school even starts.
Low C Sharp's point would be a great one for COB or for a system that allowed a girl to get more than one bid.
But since I feel that most PNMs don't control their recruitment experience as much as they react to cuts (or at least that's my impression based on being most familiar with a system where everyone's top few tend to be the same after round one; most don't end up there), I don't think know that sharing the information really gives the PNM much more control over the situation. They can know it and consider it, but it's not like weighing two places where you know you've been accepted.
But I wouldn't overly romanticize the recruitment process. You aren't choosing a soul mate. You're getting matched to a group that has the potential to do great things for your and with you. Many of us even believe we could have been happy and successful in other groups had the one we joined not worked out.
