It's one thing to bring her back and give her another chance, but I would rather do that earlier in recruitment, not on the day when she will end up somewhere on my bid list and probably on no one else's!
But if she's already on the flex list for pref, hasn't the chapter pretty much already said that it's okay to give her a bid?

I do feel somewhat uncomfortable with it because it seems to basically guarantee her as a QA and that just feels weird because you're basically signing up to take someone you know was near the bottom of your list. On the other hand, she was on the flex list/bid list and she's not displacing anyone you ranked higher, so what's the harm?

How do chapters view the flex list for pref? Does the average chapter member have any idea who is on it rather than the regular list? I would doubt it, but I have no idea.

I suppose you could just put her dead last on your pref list and then there wouldn't be any concern that she might have taken the place of another QA...
