SEC Recruitment Results!

[B]aopirose, Thank you for that helpful background. My initial reaction was probably partly due to an awareness that other campuses do things differently. For instance, the University of Kansas -- admittedly not as competitive as most SEC schools, but by no means totally laid back -- explains on one of its Greek life pages

"Although the Panhellenic Association would love to be able to guarantee every prospective member a place in a chapter, there is no guarantee in the first three rounds of recruitment that a prospective member’s chapter rankings will match with the chapters’ “lists.” However, we can guarantee a prospective member a spot in a chapter during the final round, Preference Round. We have a system of Maximizing Your Options that is offered to every prospective member that is still in the process on this day. This means that if a prospective member ranks all of the chapters that she attended on Preference Round, she is guaranteed a spot in one of those chapters. For example, if she attends three Preference Round Events and lists all three chapters, she will be guaranteed a place in one of those chapters. If she attends two events and lists both chapters, she will be in one of the two chapters. If she attends one chapter and puts that one chapter on her Preference Card then she WILL be in that chapter. However, this does not mean that she will automatically receive her first choice in all cases. If a prospective member attends three chapters and only ranks two of them on her Preference Card, she is not guaranteed a spot in any of the chapters."



i agree with this policy. I think if a PNM goes to all the preference parties she's allowed to or gets invited to if not the maximum, and lists them on her bid card, they should not be denied a bid. Just my opinion.
