Re spring recruitment, if anything sororities should probably look at grades MORE because if you’re doing it, you’re probably one of the smaller chapters, and (example) 5 rotten GPAs will mess up the average of a 123 person chapter more than that of a 200 person chapter.

This! When I worked with smaller chapters, they were almost MORE particular about grades because when your chapter has 35 women, 2-3 low GPAs really kill your average.

Timely bump

Bumping because I saw a discussion of Bama Morgan and how her grades affected her recruitment; I think not enough PNMs are seeing information on how much grades can help/hurt their recruitment.

They see it, but they don't understand how important it is to sororities. And they think they're so fabulous the grades will be overlooked.
And sometimes they are.
Which is frustrating when you have a PNM with fabulous grades, activities and looks who gets released.
