Based on that return rate, they will be given a number of PNMs that they can ask back that is a percentage of the total number in recruitment that will be most likely to lead them to having quota at the end of recruitment without stringing too many girls along. A chapter that EVERYONE wants and always has everyone accept invitations back to their next party gets to invite fewer girls back than a group that only has 40% of PNMs returning to their parties. That makes sense...right. Unfortunately, they can't fix it where girls aren't completely released, because Panhellenic doesn't know which girls will be released by each sorority. Even if Panhellenic allowed every sorority to bring back ten more girls for the ten girls released on a given day from recruitment, the chapters would likely have ten completely different girls they are interested in.
Prior to MS after each round, is this number tweaked to take into account the number of girls who drop out and/or are cut by every chapter? Perhaps the chapters are given estimates prior to recruitment and exact numbers each night. I have no idea. JW.
