We all know Panhellenic can't say "you must have recs to participate in rush!" Because that's a lie. You also don't need clean clothes or deodorant, if you want to get technical. The only things you must have are the required GPA and the required chromosomes (and even the latter might be up for debate).

But going to the other side and saying that recs aren't needed doesn't work either. They aren't needed for rush, but they ARE needed by some chapters to give a girl a bid. Unless all the chapters get together and agree they won't cut girls for lack of recs - which will never happen any more than chapters will get together and agree on ANY MS issue - if you can't find a roundabout way to say it, you need to just keep your mouth shut.

My daughter is also telling me many, many girls are telling her they only got a few recs here and there, but that they really weren't needed anymore. I only knew because I read it here months ago. However, if you go look at the individual sororities websites they give you an address to send the recs. If they didn't want/need them, they wouldn't ALL have the address and info for receiving them.
