Anytime I've seen a chapter bid a girl they've perceived as a risk management liability (with MIP arrests and such), it has always come back to bite them somehow.

Ex: My friend from CA is an XYZ sorority alumna. Her chapter at her school had a similar situation where some members had bad feeling about a girl who had had an underaged DUI. But alot of girls loooooved her. They decided to take her anyway. At their formal, she got so drunk that she came back to their house and broke 2 of the windows.

All I'm saying is that I've never seen (on my campus or any other of my friend's schools) such a PNM get a bid and become a productive member. They usually end up being some sort of drama queen or causing some sort of RM issue within the chapter.

This has been my experience as well--seeing things from both a collegian and alumna point of view. Some of those girls will eventually weed themselves out when they get brought before standards and are reprimanded for their actions to their dismay. They are either forced out or leave on their own due to unwillingness to change. BUT, does a chapter really even want to have to mess with such an issue? Why not avoid the issues altogether and not extend them a bid.
