We had our first round in the Union at my university - it's cheaper for PHC (no renting buses), and quicker, since you're all in the same building...plus it puts everyone on an even playing field for the first round (which actually hurt our chapter more than helped, because we had one of the bigger, more beautiful houses on campus, but a smaller chapter.

Same here. The first two rounds (Go greek & philanthropy day) at my school were held in our Student Center. PNMs didn't visit the chapter houses until round 3, which was House Tours/Video night.

And it was 78% of those who attended first round, rather than 78% of those who completed recruitment.

If only 1.5% were released completely, to some degree it means that 98.5% of PNM might have matched but 20% took themselves out of the game.
