I think that virtual recruitment is beneficial for some and a nightmare for others. Southern Methodist has committed to a fully virtual recruitment today and I don't look forward to seeing how that will work. I truly believe that there are some schools where recruitment is so competitive that it becomes truly unfair and I don't think that virtual will make it any better, in fact, I think that it'll make dirty rushing much easier and much more likely to happen.

They're a terribly competitive school and some girls are already heavily being recruited in the fall, I hate to see that they're going online because I feel like some houses and some girls just won't have a chance. In person recruitment is hard enough, virtual is brutal and there's no real way to gauge a person over a screen, much less an entire sorority. Alabama and Ole Miss are competitive but I truly believe that rushing at SMU is an entirely different league, especially since rush happens during second semester.

Via the Texas Panhellenic website, all rounds were virtual and bid day was a hybrid of virtual and in person
