Again, thanks for your time. We know you're busy and appreciate your willingness to help. We couldn't do it without support from our alumnae.
AOT,
Whatever Chapter"
I obviously wouldn't ever do that, but there are times when it feels like tackiness is the only thing that gets through.
Thanks, DaffyKD, for reassuring me that I'm not the only one who feels this way!
Now I'm wondering if the lack of response/thank you note is a generational thing? Do any chapters send hand-written notes these days? Heck, I'd even settle for an email letting me know the outcome!

Ummmm at 45 cents per note for postage plus $1 each for stationary for 1200 girls + many girls had more than one note = at least $2000? I would say no, most chapters do not send a thank you note for every recommendation.
Some chapters have their new members send notes to whomever recommended them. That is very nice. Some of the NPC groups have a policy of notifying legacies of their status when they are dropped or bid. A few groups have a place where you can ask for her final status if a girl that you recommended is very special to you on their recommendation form.
