The other reason I though of voluntary withdrawls/depledging is because I interpretted Lane Sig's question as certain chapters experiencing higher amounts of depledging/withdrawls than others. Though, at a school with a liberal admissions policy, there will be a wide variety of GPAs and you could argue that the "popular" chapters are getting the PNMs with the higher HS GPAs and therefore, less likely to flunk out, but you still never know with just the high school GPA to go on. I'm not sure what he was getting at.
YAY deferred recruitment!

Hopefully he will come back and tell us.

I also have thoughts about the influence of living in a dorm first year as opposed to a chapter house, and how RAs and other people who are not members can see behavior or warning signs we may not, or we may not want to deal with for whatever reason. I fully admit many sororities have issues with PR & RM when it comes to dealing with issues (alcohol for example) and that we often don't handle things until there is a huge incident. On the other hand we have a lot of over programming and requirements that don't work with today's college student and are not effective.
