Just be aware that some orgs won't allow an active to write a rec for a PNM who is rushing her chapter. I know at least for Kappa, if I were an active member of Omega Omega chapter at Big State U, I can't write a rec for a girl going through rush at Big State U. However, if I were an alumna of Omega Omega chapter, I could write a rec for a girl going through Big State U rush. Hopefully that helps clarify a little.
Thanks so much!! I was always under the impression that recs HAD to be from alumna and then I just read on the fb page that active sisters could write them. That put me at ease because I have friends in almost every chapter.

I don't think ANY NPC orgs allow an active to write a rec for a woman who is rushing her chapter. It would be kind of pointless - anything she could say in a rec, she can convey while she's there and the sisters are voting on PNMs or before that. The whole idea behind a rec is for those alums who aren't there to put in their two cents and say that in their opinion, this rushee would make a good member.
The only way I think this would fly is if the active is studying abroad or at an internship/student teaching and isn't participating in rush.
