Back in the 70s there was a top tier sorority at a flagship state school in the midwest that went through some major drama when the wrong list got turned into PanHel after the first round. In other words, PNMs who were intended to be released got invitations to the next round and PNMs who were intended to receive invitations to come back got the shaft. The error happened when one of the more clueless actives in the house thought the person designated to turn in the list was going to miss the deadline and so she went into hero mode, grabbed up the reject list and ran it down to the PanHel office. The error wasn't discovered until the match list for the next party was received and it was too late to do anything about it. Panhel said the house had no choice but to move forward with the pool on record as having been selected. The only exception made allowed the biological sister of an active member to continue rushing the house. The house went nuts --- instead of splitting hairs over discriminators, all of a sudden they were scrambling to save face by finding qualities to appreciate in girls they had been quick to dismiss. It's hard to say how many of the pledges in that class ever figured it out, being new to how recruitment works and all. I sometimes wonder if the actives ever fully recovered or learned anything from that fateful year.
