That's not a criticism of Bama -- IMHO, it makes a lot more sense to cut PNMs based on recs than on looks, and looks are necessarily going to form a bigger part of the impression a PNM makes if the chapter has no other information. I'm just saying that system size alone doesn't explain the importance of recs in the SEC.

You are correct. Yes, recs make it easier to make easy cuts in a system with 1500 PNMs, but recs predate recruitments that large. A lot of it has to do with tradition. Even if suddenly the PNM pool dried up, the need to have recs would not dry up with them. It's part of the mystique of greek life in these large systems. They also serve an important purpose.
