Is that really the same kind of rec though? If it's not written by someone who actually knows (or met) the PNM, I don't consider it the same thing as a rec obtained by the sorority (due to their own requirements.)

Collegiate chapter contacts hometown alum...alum knows girl...or finds a fellow alum or friend who knows girl...alum writes rec and sends back. Whether requested or volunteered, it's the same thing.

I think that DG may have a particularly strong network for that- I was surprised to learn when I showed up at recruitment that they had a reference for me at DG- I hadn't asked anyone for one since I didn't know any DGs (so I thought). But they'd found a high school teacher who knew me well- and this was several states away from my hometown.

Some chapters don't require recs from all of the ladies that go through recruitment--I know that my chapter did not get recs from a lot of girls, and we still accepted many of them. I think it depends on the Panhellenic Association and school environment.

accepting recommendations has absolutely nothing to do with your panhellenic. it is based on your national policy and that particular chapter.

USC = University of South Carolina, so yes, correct thread. Maybe she got an rec from an alum, but said alum would not have met her.
