There aren't any cuts until after the second event but they're a lot more, honest, would be the best word, and it helps when girls are coming into skit night. Also, since are events take place in one building girls can see if another sorority has a large party or a small party and that can effect perceptions. Now, everyones parties are equal and most girls end up happy.
I think that sounds like the sort of balance I'm talking about, KDMafia. A girl who goes to at least two events at each house, and is able to talk to at least 3 or 4 members, will have no reason to feel mistreated. It also gives even the competitive chapters a better chance at evaluating the girls.

For schools that do grade cuts after the first round, make that transparent as well. A girl can say, "Okay, I got cut from XYZ because I didn't have a 3.0," or whatever.
