Having seen a recolonization before, I figured as much. Lots of women (who for one reason or another) didn't get a bid, legacies, and upperclassmen, along with the few who were intrigued by the new kid on the block. It took the chapter with which I'm familiar about 3 years to find their stride, and another 3-4 years to really excel - but they did it.
One of the biggest differences I see in the two is that, with the recolonization, there was still the interview process. Which isn't infallible - one of the women who didn't pass the interview ended up getting a bid two years later, and was on Homecoming Court!
It's becoming "curiouser and curiouser"!!
