Question about Rec Ltrs

[Sciencewoman]

I would love an updated list of who is doing what...traditional forms, self introductions, references/introduction forms from anyone including non-members, etc. I just got my first rec request tonight, and it's apparent that well-intentioned mom is about 2 years out of date on the current expectations/rec processes and isn't aware there have been changes for many groups.

The only one I've found who isn't taking any kind of rec at all is Phi Mu.
I posted a list, which may or may not be totally accurate, on Facebook on the Alabama Sorority Recruitment Parents page, in the FiLES section. You'll have to request to join.

Something that reminded me of my age today:

I recall (mumble) years ago sending an informational sorority recruitment rec, for a woman I personally knew, directly to the greek life office of a major university. This was done because our NPC had no chapter at said school, and this rec would thus be made available to every greek group on campus that went to their greek life office and looked at it (some may have had a policy never to read unsolicited/non-member written recs).

I imagine with the explosion of social media that what I did back then is unheard of and unnecessary today.
