Texas A&M Recruitment...as a junior?

[33girl]

I read it differently, rather that a "preference event" seems like a very fluid concept that a school can define however they want.

If it's a situation where, as I said, preference is the FIRST AND ONLY time where you can cut anyone and ergo there's been no mutual selection process up until then, and RFM obviously is nonexistent, I don't see how ANY sorority in that situation could be expected to be that much of a mindreader. Either you 1) invite only your favorites [from, usually at the most, an informational and one party] to pref and hope to God that they all like you too or 2) cover your ass and invite everyone.

It just seems kind of asinine for NPC to advocate these different recruitment styles and then pass a rule that would be difficult to follow if you're using anything other than formal rush.

I mean, I went to 5 pref parties. I seriously doubt that I was on 5 bid lists.

The guide describes what a preference event is too actually. It's fairly comprehensive. If it's a minimally structured recruitment without bid lists it's probably not an issue. If it's partially structured it is.

Check your HQ website for a copy and look it up. I know you're incredulous about it, but the reason why it's being treated like a "rule" is because it is one. And it's one that's mentioned easily a dozen times.

Why on earth would we have a copy of the Green Book on our website?

Is it on the NPC site? If so, just give me a link.

SK does, on the sisters only site. Don't know if the MOI is on the NPC website. They probably charge for it.

What VP said. Our chapters have to have at least one physical copy but we have it available for reference online.
