My Two Cents

I'm an alum from Rockhurst, which has a much smaller Greek System than Creighton does. Nevertheless, I am shocked that the sororities have a guaranteed bid system there. Even at such a bass-ackwards school at Rockhurst, such a system would never fly.

As far as upholding the Jesuit philosophy, etc. with regards to bidding, my opinion is this. Those girls who are the "least wanted" by the sororities ultimately will get a bid from the "least favorable" sorority on campus. Maybe for some, they want or would take bids from this group, but my guess is that alot would drop out of rush.

At Rockhurst, we had a chapter of Alpha Xi Delta that this very thing happened to. For two years, they bid tons of girls only to have none of them sign with any group. I'm not sure how this would contribute to the Jesuit mission. But again, my little story is only conjecture for how things work at Creighton.
