How does your school handle bidless PNMs on bid day?

[AOII Angel]

My school had rush a week before school started. All rushees lived for the week in one of the girl's dorms. We had the "Knock." The day after prefs (aka Bid day) all rushees had to sit quietly in their rooms waiting for a knock to tell them they didn't get a bid. It was very nerve racking as a rushee. As a rho chi, though, it was nice to allow time to talk to a girl in private. I had a rush group of only non-freshmen women with an average GPA under 2.5. It was a rough week with three women turned away before prefs. I had to knock on two girls' doors. I cried more than they did. Both were wonderful people...one of which my sorority invited to a COR to get up to house total. She accepted and became my third little sis. I actually agreed to get a third so I could get her. It's definitely not a good situation to be in for the rushee or the rho chi.
