The sentiment in the thread seems to be that Jane the PNM is lying. The OP/Recruitment advisor knows where she fell on their bid list, and knows that she was within the first bid list, i.e. before they reached quota.

PNM Jane claims that she put B first. AXOrushadvisor was saying that in 100% of the situations she is familiar with the PNM is lying. This may be due to:
1. Regretting the ranking order that she actually did choose and trying to wiggle out of it to get into the other chapter
2. Trying to save face with friends of hers in the chapter. "I put you first but got my second choice" so that she wouldn't have to admit that she didn't want to choose their chapter.

I am skeptical about computer error with matching. If the name was outside the first bid list there may be a minuscule chance of it getting flubbed, but I just don't see how that can happen when you fall within the first bid list.

I am thinking there was either an error with the data entry, but something the Greek Life Coordinator said was that the software wasn't working right...It is entirely possible that "Jane" is lying (I don't know her well enough to say one way or the other). What I do know is that she has been going up to members of "B" and asking why we didn't want her. I'm hoping that she isn't just trying to stir up trouble, but who should I reach out to?

Do/did you want her? If so, ask the GL coordinator to look further into this software issue. I would also ask the GLC if any other rushees have had issues, and if Jane is the only one, she most likely is a liar with pants on fire.

If not, all you or your sisters have to say is "I'm sorry, but we can't discuss membership selection. I hope you have fun in A."
