One more question- my school, and I'm sure many others, have the "one calendar year" rule, whereby if you accept a bid, it's binding for a year. If you were not offered a bid, would a PNM be able to try to rush the following semester?

My school's PNM Packet says:
"A signed Preference Card or a Continuous Open Bidding Acceptance Card is binding. If the potential member receives a bid under the preference system, she is ineligible to be a new member in any other national fraternity on the same campus for one calendar year. If the potential member does not receive a bid under the preference system, she is eligible for continuous open bidding. If the potential member transfers to another campus during the year, she is eligible for pledging on that campus, at the earliest possible opportunity.
4. A student who has had her pledge broken by a sorority or has broken her pledge to a sorority may not be asked to join another sorority for one calendar year from the date she was originally pledged. However, she may be given a bid by the same sorority at any time within that calendar."

If I am not bound to any sorority and did not receive a bid, that shouldn't be a problem, right?

Sorry if these are very specific to my campus. I'm just interested in some outside opinions from anyone who's been through it!
