Agreed, but I've seen too many who
1) have a serious case of kumbaya and think their intentions of a tier-free NPC will make it so because after all, PNMs are uninformed little people who won't figure out that they're being snowed, or
2) don't have NPC experience (or do, but not at a similar school)

Feeling a liking for a chapter is a really good place to start from. And if your daughter has friends in the chapter, so much the better. A chapter that she likes might not only be a great fit for her, it might end up being the best fit for her.

Tell her that like can grow into love.

Recs aren't necessary for recruitment participation. Recs are necessary for membership selection. Maybe those GA's are hoping that if they drive home "recs aren't necessary" then people will stop sending them and the process will be easier for all. Let's face it. Most recs are anonymous forms filled out by women who don't know the PNM well. They don't serve the chapters as well as they did years and years ago, when it was truly a recommendation by an alumna who was well-acquainted with the rushee. Today, it's just checking off a box or regurgitating a resume after MAYBE meeting a PNM for a few minutes and deciding, "She doesn't SEEM weird."

Heh, that's probably how I ended up getting a bid. I can pretend to be normal for short bursts
