Because that's the reality of recruitment. Have you ever even helped with modern recruitment?

As I said, some have so kindly* reminded me I didn't go through the type of formal rush that some, or most, schools now use. Had I not been invited to DG, I would not be greek. I seriously doubt I would regret it, but it's one of those things I can never know.
I
do know that I personally believe a rushee should go to the chapters she chooses and to be able to receive more than one bid. The 26 NPC groups have, however, chosen to give up autonomy to "fairness". (In my opinion, sometimes we spend so much time on "fair" that we forget to do what's "right".) I know I don't have a say; that's what happens in any representative form of government.
I've also heard "it's the system we're stuck with". To my mind, that's acceptance of
status quo with no attempt at improvement, but again I realize I may be in the minority. I'm certainly not on the same page as the decision makers.
So you have your opinion, and I have mine. I'll not silence mine.
