These rules seem arbitrary at best and maybe that's what it's supposed to be. I find the saying "mutual selection" to be highly overstated. PNMs really have no say in the selection process.
That is what I was trying to figure out. One thing about Panhellenic at IU is that it is completely student run. The Greek life office staff try and let the students run it as much as possible. Unfortunately this means they are not always consistent from year to year. Not all of the rules and regulations always clear ( so I was under the impression that the rule about having to attend preference was still in effect).

As for the girl that had three pref parties and dropped? Honestly I would rather she dropped then than wait and drop on bid day or after. At least this way she didn't take a bid and drop-- because even if that spot was filled with a snap bid later, the snap bid didn't get to experience bid night and probably felt the sting of no bid after pref.

Agree, but then the girl and her mother have little room to complain about how unfair the IU system was to her.....
