Yep, it makes sense.

I guess I'll add my numbers thingie from the other thread as well:

If a chapter has say 150 girls in it, and each one of those girls has say 3 PNMs that they know personally (from home, HS, or wherever) that they're saying they "just HAVE to have"--- that makes for 450 PNMs who have "connections" in that chapter.

If every single one of those "connected" girls gets an invite, that leaves very few invites (depending on the RFM) for those PNMs whom the chapter maybe JUST met during first round and had no prior knowledge of.

Here is a Power Point from Kentucky's Greek Life website that can help explain bid matching.

This is the list for 2009, not 2010 like I mistakenly said it was

For cities without a state after them, should we assume they're located in Alabama?

There really are! Two girls from Wisconsin got bids, one from right by my hometown! One went Phi Mu and one to Theta.

You know, the system works pretty well - almost 1400 girls were placed in 15 sororities in less than a week. That's efficient!

Ha, I love that there are more girls from Missouri, and more from Pennsylvania, and more from Illinois, and more from California, than from Auburn and Opelika put together!
