Excellent posts by everyone!
I'm confident I speak for every member here on GC when I say it breaks our hearts everytime we read about someone's daughter, sister, niece, or friend not getting a bid. I'm sorry we can't tell you why this happened because we don't know and even if we did, we are bound by the confidentiality of our organizations.
I'm also just as confident that the moms, sisters, aunts and friends are completely baffled by how this happened. Their PNM had a sky high GPA and an impeccable resume. She's sweet, funny, intelligent, dedicated, hard working, cute, etc. What more could a sorority want? Trust me, that's exactly what we want in our members.
But for reasons we don't know or understand, some PNM's just won't click with the 2 or 3 or however many actives they get the chance to meet during Recruitment. Not everyone is going to see themselves as best friends forever with someone else after spending only 15-30 minutes together. In that limited amount of time the actives can't always see all those wonderful traits in your PNM. IMHO the lack of time available to get to know someone on either side is the biggest drawback of any Formal Recruitment process. It's a shame, but that's the system we have.
