But the fact of the matter is, if these things happen, there really shouldn't be much need for guaranteed placement. We would run into problems with PNM's who were total biatches to all but the top five chapters. Then, only those five chapters would invite them back. So they followed the letter of the law to be a quota addition, but not the spirit, as they didn't give anyone else a real chance.

At Montevallo there are only 5 sororities, so a situation like that is unlikely. If a PNM is a total bitch to 3 out of 5 chapters she runs the real risk of being badmouthed to those 2 she does want to pref, not to mention it seems that it's the girls most likely to do that that are the least likely to end up where they think they want to be. Whether that's because the chapter sees through them or because the girls aren't quite as charming as they think they are I can't say, but at a small school it's harder to play the game that way.
PNMs like that usually seem to think they're a shoe in for XY or AB, and that's IMO the #1 way to pretty much guarantee being dropped from XY or AB. (From an outsider's viewpoint...I'm not talking about my own chapter here).
