It has been my experience that the early recs get seen more throughout the summer and those names become "familiar". Also, any recs that arrive days before or during work week are easily overlooked because things are already clipping along - the machine is already cranking!

So, get those recs in as early as possible for those uber competitive recruitments!

Don't forget that under RFM, the bigger chapters have to release more...and they can't wait until that night to review the recs. Advance knowledge helps them move more quickly through the list.
Another reason recs are more important than ever.
What makes me gnash my teeth is that some are so concerned about privacy that they won't give you the grades when they request a rec.
After mama and daddy's names, team preference and dogs' names, that's the first thing I want to know.

Early to mid summer makes sense, but when someone was talking about A Day, I was thrown. You couldn't even have a girl's final grades by then.

I guess I need to introduce myself to an Alpha Gam adviser to ask if they'd rather have incomplete RIFs early or complete RIFS later.

I'm sure I could do better getting them in complete as well.

Good luck this year, Alabama advisers!
