Like ladybug12 said, better to get 30 with a 60 quota who truly like the sorority, rather than getting 75, half of which you're doing the equivalent of begging a toddler to eat their vegetables everyday. It's really upsetting and debilitating for a chapter to have women drop like flies during pledgeship. It's also not fair to the girls who really do want to be there. They get overlooked when you're trying to talk the on-the-fencers into staying.
I don't disagree, but there's a big difference between Suzie Southerner who would be MORTIFIED to return to her hometown wearing the "wrong" letters, and will never stay in chapter C; and Wendy Westcoaster who really *did* like the women she met in chapter C but has heard a ton of negative tent talk.

Good riddance to Suzie. Wendy can probably punt and see how she feels in a week. Women are stressed out and sleep-deprived and isolated when signing bid cards, and things may look different a week later.

Because let's be honest, if chapters A and B are top chapters, they are NOT going to be bidding women through COR any time soon.
