Exactly, on my campus there were 4 chapters who notoriously invited 4-5 times the number of girls in relation to the number of bids they had available. At that time we could only attend two pref parties. One year it was really awful, my grand little was a Rho Chi (as they were called then) and several of the girls in her group attend preference at different combinations of these 4 chapters. None of them received a bid, she had to console over 10 women that night. After that year, the campus made a policy that chapters could not invite more than a certain percentage over their quota to preference. The following year was much better as far as the number of women who didn't match. Individual campus panhellenics need to watch the numbers and the trends to adjust accordingly each year.

No, no, no, individual panhellenics should be using the Release Figures Method agreed upon by the NPC.
