I'm just going to hijack for a minute, to point out that this isn't exactly true. Now, different schools do different things with release figures so I won't speak in absolutes, but generally, more girls going through recruitment means that each chapter can invite more girls back each round. Chapters can always choose to invite fewer girls, but they want to maximize their options just as the PNM's do.

Again, I know nothing about OR specifically, but if they follow the NPC recommendations, more girls does not mean more competition for a few spots in chapters, it means more spots in chapters.

No you are correct. In fact in the presentations this was mentioned and her Rho Gammas should have told her this as well. Some chapters on campus had 90 girls per event on day 3. It was ridiculous.
