That's why I really think that a system like bid matching should be used in these situations to determine who goes to which parties. At the end of each round, PNMs should be required to rank all the sororities they attended. On the sorority side, each group should make all the cuts they want/need to (for reasons like GPA, rudeness, etc.). If they have more women remaining than they are allowed to invite back, they rank them, plain and simple. Then the computer would match up PNMs to parties, just like bids are matched. That way, ABC wouldn't have to cut more people than they wanted to. Then, maybe, if there were women who didn't "party match" with ABC earlier in the week because they got their top nine choices, but weren't initially cut by ABC for reasons like GPA, those women could be extended an invitation to a later party for ABC.
I mean, how hard could it be, really. If we've got computer programs that can bid-match, then certainly we can make computer programs that can party-match, too.
