Cuts

Poster Message:
Lots of reasons. Grades are a factor and an easy first cut pass. Involvement is also considering as well as how has this person portrayed themselves in available social media. A factor that may not result in a cut but some considerations by the chapter is previous knowledge of the person. It could be possible that a current sister has knowledge of the PNM and will contribute to the conversation if the individual is a match with the chapter. To be fair this is normally to help elevate a person not hinder, but it can happen that way too. Also don’t forget each PNM sends in a video of themselves and some chapters may also utilize those to see how a the PNM presents themselves, some don’t. Ultimately a chapter has to make significant cuts before philanthropy and in some cases can only bring to their house 700ish of the 1400 PNMs to philanthropy. Numbers can be even smaller for houses who are heavily desired, so while it can seem brutal or confusing why a person was cut there are many many reasons. Also not every house does the exact same thing so these are examples and not a finite process for each house. It’s generally a very eye opening experience once the new sister gets to see the other side. This is why it is encouraged to a PNM to talk to their Pi Chi since they will have seen both sides and can counsel and comfort the girls as they go through recruitment.
