Perhaps HartofSec can shed light on this since she has been so deeply involved over the years in her group's recruitment at Alabama. Surely she has connections there still who can give her the skinny....so to speak....

I don't recall ever making any grandiose claims about my involvement or inside Panhellenic connections, so I can't help you there.
Things seem to be summer pre-recruitment business as usual in my group. As to how generic recommendations will be considered once all the recruitment app info is released to chapters, I couldn't say even if I knew, as this would be treading into membership selection.

The number that stands out the MOST to me is that by and large, PNMs who stay in recruitment are matched to their first choice group (82%) and only 17 PNMs don't get bids. But they had the highest number of QAs in 11 years. I wonder how many of these QAs were to 1st choice group/2nd/etc. and how they shake out to each chapter.

Yep. Most universities made the switch in 2005/2006. Mine did it my senior year (2006.)

The first few recs I wrote for Alabama, over the past 3 years, were all for very high achieving, 32+ ACT score PNMs who were merit scholarship recipients...their strengths definitely were in academics, and they received bids. This year, I've written 3 times as many, for much more "average" academic PNMs, but they are all very attractive and seem to be drawn to the southern sorority experience. They're not receiving big scholarships. I'm curious to see how the trend continues, because I've gone from no rec writing to a few recs for high achievers, to a snowballing of requests -- to the point where our APH finally got involved this year and actually divvied out rec requests and actively sought to find alumnae from unrepresented groups.

I'm probably biased but it's gorgeous! Completely blew me out of the water when I saw it in person yesterday for the first time. I've seen the sketches but being there just - wow. I'm so proud to be a Gphi.
