This is a well-used ploy and sadly isn't flagged as a rush violation often enough. What happens is a house tells a pnm that they will offer them COB if they drop out before or even after pref. The reason it is so evil is that this person that is dropping is on other houses lists at pref so the lists get screwed up and they lose out on a PNM. If a house is smart they can figure out what happened but its usually too late to do something by that time as the person has already pledged the house that committed the rush violation. This tactic is widely used and is now front at center as an issue at another school in CA where APhi is accused of using this tool for 4 consecutive recruitments. My bet is that knowing how ethically challenged DG is here at USC that they did something similar to this ploy and maybe got caught or not. In the case of APhi that I mentioned the house that lost pledges at pref actually went through 4 years of lists to prove their case. If DG did what I think they did, I hope they are punished as once the system loses integrity then the whole system is called into question. I hope someone is checking the lists but I'm not holding my breath for justice on this one at all as the system is broken.
