In that case I would tell NPC to f.o. and rush BEFORE them. That kind of attitude from the nationals is unacceptable.

How many sisters do you have total? I guess I was thinking you had under 10. The main thing I was trying to say is don't make all your recruitment events "parties." Girls can come over to the house where all the sisters are to watch The Bachelor or whatever, go along to a play that a sister's in, etc etc. Once they've been to a few of these events, you can have a more structured open bid party (where all the sisters can meet the girls) and give bids out. The main thing is to get the rushees & sisters feeling comfortable with each other.

Are the sisters who are being (nice euphemism) "opinionated" at rush seniors? They're probably burnt out. They're only there 3 more months, so try & deal with it. I got to the same point - fortunately I was self aware enough to just kind of hang back.

If that's not the case - you should have some kind of standards board that can address these issues and what to do about these sisters - if you have concrete evidence that their behavior is having a negative impact on your rush. It should not be a decision you and you alone make.
