Recs

An alum can write a long antiquated letter or simply fill out a form online and forward it to the chapter's Recruitment advisor. Social media is not the way to go, trust me. A recommendation also tells a chapter that this PNM is someone who could be a member in good standing. This means she would be less likely to have to drop due to grades, standards, or financials. I am not meaning to sound cold, but. Sorority relies on timely-paid dues (for 3 or 4 years) to function. My house has three options for recommendations: Highly Rwcommend, Recommend, and a No Rec. I don't HR unless I personally know the girl and family well. If I am relying on outside information (a friend's daughter I don't know but know that she has strong credentials or after speaking to a teacher or counselor, etc). A No Rec will result in a girl being cut after first round. An alum has learned something about her that she would not represent the house well AND most likely wouldn't be able to remain in the house due to reasons I listed above. Recs are important!
