I was going to say - maybe the girls don't send thank you notes because they don't know if the women wrote the rec and have no way to find out? I mean isn't that kind of like sending a thank-you note before someone even sends you a present, just assuming they will do so? I would feel quite silly if I wrote a TY note to someone thanking them for the birthday present and never got anything.
Or should they put a TY note in with the packet when they send it to the alumna? That sounds like it would make more sense.
And again, thank you notes are NOT a Southern thing, they're a good etiquette thing, period.
