Recruitment as Sophomore at UA

[Low C Sharp]

Chapters can do what they want...but I think that's a foolish policy. What if the PNM was cut because of her high school grades, but came into her own and aced her freshman year of college? What if the PNM was cut for lack of a rec, but the following year she has terrific ones from in-house alumnae? People can change for the better during freshman year. Why have a policy that prevents you from even considering whether circumstances have changed? You can always take a look and cut her a second time if you want.

I'm betting it's more an "unwritten rule" than an actual policy or they couldn't say things like this:

I've never heard anyone saying "well, our GPA requirement isn't done as much since we have an upperclass quota."

Not only that, it was my perception that when the "cut once, cut always" rule was in effect, it wasn't for things like grades that are cut & dried, it was more for "intangibles."
