Dirty Rushers :(

It's Panhellenic's job to council her on that. Since we don't know the campus, we don't exactly know whether or not it'll have an adverse affect. Also, if she wants to document and hold on to it, she better start time stamping things. I've seen too many instances when a chapter gets away with "she's just bitter she didn't get a bid."

The actives are clawing all over themselves to turn in their "friends" in other groups for rush infractions, but the PNM's who are the ones who have the potential to get burned by rush infractions are too scared to say anything. It just seems that the system isn't working to the benefit of the PNM who is stuck in the weird position. We all know countless stories (at least I do?) of PNM's who were promised bids, didn't say anything about it because they were too scared, and then were burned on or before Bid Day. Not sure how to fix the system though...

This happens at most schools. If I remember correctly, my chapter filed a recruitment infraction on another for offering the Rho Gammas a snack when they came to pick up PNMs at the house. Or something equally as stupid/inconsequential. They should be there to protect the PNMs but unfortunately chapters use them as a weapon against each other.
