Exactly.

Well, the Panhellenic spirit first and foremost. If everyone espouses the "you're only as strong as your weakest link" mentality, everyone will want all chapters to succeed. There really hasn't been an issue with one chapter trying to hurt another through release figures. Additionally, if they are using ICS, the maximum number of invites is programmed into the system, and it will not allow them to exceed it. They can underinvite, but they can't overinvite. Underinviting only hurts them - and the PNMs to some extent. But it can't hurt another chapter.

We've had several threads on here about legacies and also what a hard time they have these days during competitive rushes. It's heartbreaking. Yes, I know that many chapters have more legacies than they have spots open but it's still heartbreaking for moms and sisters of released PNMs.
