^^^ Washington and Lee does "formal" IFC recruitment. Based on informal recruitment events/getting to know fraternity members during the fall, guys are invited to 4 chapters at the beginning of recruitment week in January. The first two nights, they attend organized meal functions at 2 chapters each night. There are other events the next couple of nights. I'm not sure if there are any cuts along the way, but at the end of the week, guys receive bids and tear up the ones they're not accepting. Hence, fraternity bid day is called "Tear Night."

I think it helps take the guesswork out of the process, from the PNMs' stance. From the fraternity's side, there's a big disparity between the numbers of new members each group gets because the ball is really in the PNMs' court at the end of the week.
