University of Alabama Fall 2014 NPC Sorority Recruitment

^^^^True, and honestly, at that point, it is so important for the PNM to be making her own decisions and choices uninfluenced by outsiders and their opinions. Each chapter on every campus is different, and we all know moms, cousins, Aunts, friends, etc. who want to give their input which further clouds the poor PNM's already overwhelmed mind! It is best, at this point, for the PNM to make their own decision. I would think it also leads to more retention overall by sororities if the PNM is choosing and not feeling torn by trying to please others.

Very true and I truly wish PNMs would keep this in mind for themselves and the PNMs they're going through recruitment with. One PNM had 3 choices for Pref Round and she was beyond ecstatic with her choices. Susy Sunshine comes in and begins to tell her how awful, bottom tier, take everybody, etc the 3 choices are and leaves the previously happy PNM wondering what the heck just happened. Tent talk at its absolute worst.
