The only justification that I'd seen offered occurred within the very narrow example of "is it better for a struggling chapter to close than it is to hurt a members feeling?" And even that was totally hypothetical because no one even agreed it would work, much less be right.
Were you and your sisters able to do anything about this situation?

I was asked for an example to prove my point and I gave one. It was not done within our chapter so there is not much you can do to change another groups internal operations, especially finding out after rush is over. Our members were of course supportive of the other NPC's member in question.
I only posted again because some posters have stated that it is necessary on more competitive campuses, trying to justify the practice. My point was only that the practice is not limited to that situation - and regardless, I feel it is never acceptable or necessary - even in the example of a struggling chapter.
I feel that if they are good enough to be your sister the other 51 weeks of the year then they are good enough to be your sister during rush. Some may disagree - that's life.
