I do wonder why have standards, if there are ways to "hold spots" (daughter's words) for girls who do not meet these standards.

I do not know all the rules but my daughter is aware of two girls approached yesterday by the same house about accepting a bid to a house and they did. Are these consider snap bids? If it's not, I thought informal rush was not beginning until after the new colonization.

For those who have no compassion for girls who didn't maximize their bids or withdrew because they didn't play according to the rules, please note that it doesn't seem all the chapters are either.

It may happen all over but at IU the competition is fierce enough among the girls meeting grade standards, going through formal rush and playing by the rules.
You have no information beyond rumors that chapters have broken any rules. Rumors fly like crazy during recruitment and afterwards and 99% of them are wrong.

Snap bids are within the rules. They are designed to let chapters pick up women who rushed and were not given bids. They are designed to help women like your daughter.

I know you and your daughter are feeling raw. I'm sorry that IU is so messed up. The chapters aren't cheating, though.
