Recruitment at a small Alabama School

[aopinthesky]

I know someone who went through recruitment at UNA and I have some knowledge of the campus panhellenic. To say that things are a little bit screwed up over there would be an understatement. If the RFM is being used correctly, I don't understand why so many women there go bidless, although they may be dropping out. The PNM's were supposedly told at the beginning of recruitment that, by beginning the formal recruitment process, they could not accept a bid outside of that for one year. I am not sure what color the book they are reading is.
My friend accepted a bid to "D" even though it was not her first choice and thinks she can make a go of it. I am proud of her. "D" is a strong group nationally and that is just as important, given the number of years that one is an alum.
I, too, have little sympathy for someone who went bidless but did not maximize her options. That is what happens when you start thinking you are too good for a certain group.

I think the tent talk about chapter D is just really bad, in that so many girls would drop out than join chapter D.
