I have heard this about a lot of campuses. I'm wondering if girls are being pressured to stay in recruitment when they want to drop out. Maybe they're half-heartedly taking bids to join in the excitement, then dropping out soon afterwards? Maybe some Panhellenics are under pressure to see that everyone gets quota and they're leaning on the RCs.

It's so tough to be an 18-year-old PNM and not know if you should really take a shot at that bid or back off for another year. Every situation is different.

Oh--violetpretty, yes, several schools are seeing lots of no-shows who had accepted bids.

I had a conversation with a GC sorority member where I asked if RMF is helping with retention. On a couple of campuses (I won't mention them publically, pm me if you want specifics) it seems as if chapters that have traditionally not met quota are now meeting quota, but not retaining their pledges. In these situations, is RMF really helping the chapters?
