I'M NOT SAYING GREEKS ARE MEAN, for the 2nd time. What I advocate in this post is simple. When you go into your voting process for your next recruitment, don't vote against someone because they depledged or left recruitment! I cannot think of a simpler way to phrase that! I'm not saying the GCers are going to solve this problem or are the only thing that needs to change. The root of the problem is what needs to change and that is allowing for these girls to not have a fair chance at being Greek. Rather than saying XYZ has a competitive Greek system, sisters should advocate to raise campus total, etc. so they can reach a wider pool of girls. We can't pride ourselves on rejecting PNMs, we need to pride ourselves on positively effecting young women through involvement in Greek Life.
I know Bama and Ole Miss have competitive recruitment processes. Without naming my school or organization, I will say that I go to a university with one of the most competitive Greek Life systems in the New England/Mid-Atlantic regions. I have done the whole, fill out recs, meet alumni, talk to advisors thing when I went through formal and informal recruitment (which isn't forgiving at all at my school!) and only received a bid after extremely unusual circumstances. I just think that WE need to keep an open mind as much as we encourage PNMs to do so.
