I agree and this is what I don't understand. They should have been able to sort this out on the spot. Her Rho Gamma knew she went to the parties. There should be a paper trail. How hard is it to compare the papers, figure out where she should have been, and match her? Even if it means granting a chapter an extra person over quota... I'm sure there is someone "official" from NPC who can give permission to do that since it was an error. And I highly doubt the rest of groups on campus will put up a stink over it.

Hopefully it has been resolved since the OP hasn't posted again, but based on the information we have the apparent lack of follow through on the very first day is appalling.

yes-greeklife should have already fixed this and if they did not feel comfortable they should be consulting the npc regional person.

please do not give up. drop by panhellenic daily until this is resolved.

If they were using ICS, or even something similar, she would have been assigned an ID number of sorts - she may not know what it was but it should have been on all of her schedules and her recruitment counselor would have had it. Tracing the number might be easier than tracing the name if the name was mispelled in the first place. They would also be able to sort all PNMs by number that registered for rush and see if there are any numbers missing (like it going from PNM #101 to PNM#103). Definetly sounds like someone made a huge mistake on the computer.

A thought: The sororities might think she withdrew after prefs but before bid signing if her name/number magically disappeared off their computer system and that is why she was not offered a bid.
