MTSUGURL - I understand and it still maked my head hurt!

It boils down to the chapters with high recruiting strength being able to invite fewer women and therefore releasing earlier those that don't really meet their "standards".

Maybe they require a 3.0 to be initiated. So for first invite, in the past they would keep women that were below that (say maybe 2.75-2.99) just because the COULD to meet their release figure. They would have released them for second invite.

Say there are 9 chapters the PNM's can go to 6 and this happens with the three chapters with the highest recruiting strength. "Old" release figures she would have been invited back to all 9 chapters. So, knowing how PNM's are she probably would have kept all 3 of these chapters. With the "old" method for second invites she would have only had a max of 3 chapters b/c the other 3 would have automatically released her b/c of grades this round.

With the "new" method the 3 that would have released her after first invites now have to release her after the initial round (open house/welcome night/IceWaterTeas whatever the school calls it). So instead of having 9 she probably have a max of 6 chapters for the first invitational round. This gives her a better chance of having more invites for the second invitational. Instead of the max 3 she would have had with the first scenario, she now has a real chance to be invited to 6 chapters for second invites.

Let me think of wording here. The ideas is that she is closer to having the max number she can go to each round, than that she have invites from all chapters. So with a 9 chapter campus if they have three invite rounds and women can go to 6 for 1st invites, 4 for second invites and 2 for pref. She would not necessarily have 9 invites to 1st round but 4-7, for 2nd invites she would have 2-6 and for pref she would have 1-3. We want the PNM's to be able to make their "cuts" but we also don't want the chapters stringing them along only to release them on pref.

Edited to add: I think the new RFM will also help women getting released out of the process - meaning getting no invites and being out of recruitment.
