They told all chapters get all the supplies you need and these things won't go towards your budget. Some chapters went out and bought tables and chair other rented and some where stressing about being about to items. The next day at night it was then told that recruitment will be 100% virtual. They said it was decided that it was in the best interest of student safety. Yeah right. Fraternity rush was still allowed to be in person and there was still a football game that was allowed to happen. Once virtual recruitment was announced there was a large drop of PNMs because they didn't want to do virtual. Some went through COB.

That's awful! That also unfair. Why were the men allowed to hold recruitment in person and not the women? Why were students allowed to attend a football game? Isn't that disparate treatment?

Not sure why the men were allowed to be in person. Yes students were allowed to go to the game. Treatment was extremely unfair. All chapters spent money that they couldn't get back. The only thing the said was the University and Panhellenic thought it was the best option. Every single chapter was extremely upset and felt that the men were getting preferential treatment. The Dean of Student and and upper level administrator was on the emergency meeting. So we never got a clear answer.
