Just a clarification, because I find sorority rush so interesting compared to fraternity rush, then would that mean that the national organization is dictating to the individual chapter what to do? If it's up to the national organization to determine whether the individual chapter fulfills the separate quota, then I think the spirit of BlueOwl's post could still ring true in that chapters could feel like they are forced to take women they may not necessarily want. If it's the individual chapters making the decision then BlueOwl's point is moot though.
Also, you say the chapters voted for it, but would that mean that only a simple majority would have had to vote yes? I could see many chapters loving this policy, but I could also see how certain chapters that are used to being really selective may be frustrated that they "have" to give bids to a group of girls who may not have made the cut as freshmen. Once again, that only applies if the individual chapters are being told to take the full separate quota, whether from their nationals, their adviser or Panhellenic.
