First - I am NOT saying that you don't need them. They are very helpful, and having recs is infinitely better than not having them.
But, if you don't have them, I don't think it's fair to say that you are doomed. And everyone is free to disagree with me, but I do not think that Mizzou should be in the list of schools where you absolutely must have recs. Yes, they are good to have. Yes, you should get them. But I know, for a fact, how many recs have been submitted to my chapter at Mizzou. I know how many women going through have not submitted a rec. I know that some people on GC who tell PNMs they must have recs would be really surprised by the number that actually have them.

Pbear19, respectfully, here is the problem with your comments...
You can only state this for YOUR sorority. It is not dependent on the university. It depends on the individual sorority.
You have NO IDEA which sororities are
required by their national HQ to have a rec from an alumnae (or perhaps an active, if permitted by the individual group) in order to extend a bid. It doesn't matter what school it is. It is required by the sorority. Period.
They may have alumnae waiting to scramble to get recs in the middle of rush for a girl who does not have one, but that is taking a huge chance.
