Rush results are a much discussed topic within the south. The reason for the pnm's poor recruitment results will eventually surface. But I agree with the above poster: whenever we heard that someone was "hell bent" on getting a pnm, and she was one of our top pnms as well, we worked harder to get her. Chances are that the pnm, herself, was saying back in the dorm (and it made its way to the chapters) that she was planning to pledge XYZ.
In war, and in rush, the walls have ears...
Thank you all for saying what I was trying to say, but much more eloquently.
