1) Is participating in formal recruitment a requirement for NPC sororities?

2) Can a chapter opt out of formal recruitment if they find that the COB process works better for them? (Assuming they will not be penalized for a smaller pledge class than the rest of the chapters on campus)

3) On your campuses, would/do/have Jewish sororities found it more beneficial to have a COB process than formal recruitment?

I KNOW we discussed this before, but I have no idea where.

I know some of the ladies have answered no to number 1, but it was mandatory at my campus once you were out of a probationary period (either for being new or another reason). Could this be in specific in a college Panhellenic or would have to do with each of those specific GLOs at the campus?

I don't know about 2 or 3.

That could be specific in a college Panhellenic; however, if ever the time would come to pass when one of the sororities decided it WASN'T in their best interests to participate in FR, they most likely could override it. It would have to do with the sorority's process of member selection, the administration of which trumps anything Panhellenic does.

Ok, that makes sense! Thanks!
