Does that 15 include Sigma Delta Tau? I didn't think they participated in Formal Recruitment.

Alabama's NPC groups:
1. Alpha Chi Omega
2. Alpha Delta Pi
3. Alpha Gamma Delta
4. Alpha Omicron Pi
5. Alpha Phi
6. Chi Omega
7. Delta Delta Delta
8. Delta Zeta
9. Gamma Phi Beta
10. Kappa Alpha Theta
11. Kappa Delta
12. Kappa Kappa Gamma
13. Phi Mu
14. Pi Beta Phi
15. Sigma Delta Tau
16. Zeta Tau Alpha

There is also a chapter of Alpha Delta Chi, a Christian sorority that is not an NPC member. They also do not participate in formal recruitment.

Here is UA Panhellenic's Web site: http://www.uapanhellenic.com/ You can link through and look at "Greek Chic," the recruitment booklet.

Okay, when browsing around the Bama Panhel recruitment site I noticed this statement in a section devoted to the topic of recs:

"Only alumnae, not current active members, can fill out a “rec” for a potentail new member."

It was my understanding that each NPC group has its own national policy about who can write a rec, and some but not all sororities permit undergrad actives to write recs. (Usually not for their own chapter, though. )

Not a biggie, I guess, but is the quoted statement correct, or is my understanding closer to current reality?

ETA: The statement quoted above appears on this page ( at least with my browser):

Maybe they just made that general statement because they are unaware of which groups allow collegians to write them?

And it's possible that allowing actives to write recs is a more recent occurrence. If no one's corrected them, they might honestly not know.
