1) Telling girls to trust the process, isn't about them. It's about the numbers. If they want to end up in any ole sorority - then yep, trust the process. There is a spot for everyone as you mention. If they want to end up in a sorority for sisterhood, leadership and empowerment than absolutely do NOT trust the process. It's not about how much you may connect with them, if you don't make the number than you get "cut" and forced onto another house. 2) Maximizing their options? It's drilled into their head to finish pref and sign the contract to accept a bid as soon as their last party is complete. They list their 2 options in order of best and next best - or worst and more worse. If they decide NOT to accept the bid the next day, their options are done. They are not allowed to rush until next year (not COB or Spring). That is not Maximizing their options. If they finish pref and are still not connected with either house, then they need to withdraw and take their chances at either 1) COB or 2) Spring Recruitment. Not every house can/will be able to participate but it gives these girls more of an option to form a connection and truly see what these groups are about. Don't get me wrong, there are truly girls out there that will (and do) throw a fit when they are cut from their "pick" - but do those girls really embody what the sisterhoods were formed as? Probably not - and that will show in time. For all girls participating for the right reason, the process does not work.
