nothing being done about aphi rush violations?

by:    

Don't understand why nothing is being done about this awful situation? Some are saying that it is because of APHI tactics that GPHI dropped out of recruitment at the last minute. The way APHI advised PNMs to drop and then for them to pick them up in COB is unethical, unfair and undermines our whole system. This has been going on for at least 3 years (that I know of) and zero ever gets done. I know few seem to care about rush violations but this behavior undermines the 'integrity' of recruitment. This house of shade and spite has to be put down.

Honestly so sad and disappointing. It is weird bc I know girls in the house and seeing them change so much bc of Alpha phi is sad. I feel like they just need to grow up and realize that this isn’t mean girls and status isn’t everything bc my friend in KA was saying that out of all the houses his frat associates with Alpha Phi are the girls that go the hardest and are a lot of fun but they are full of themselves and think they’re better than others. I feel like a lot of the girls in this house weren’t very popular in high school and struggled with social life so they now have these four years to be the it girl but it’s not just about status. Also apparantly bad sisterhood bc they don’t recruit by personality anymore so they just have small cliques. Sounds like middle school to me.

I want to apologize to anyone who might’ve been hurt during rush especially Gphi :( I can’t admit to any rush violations because I 100% honestly don’t know of any dirty rushing but that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen at some point. I know this isn’t really the place to put this out there but I just feel badly, especially to the girls of gamma phi beta - you don’t deserve to feel like you’re in “last place” because of stupid meaningless rankings and other houses not following the rules.

Hi um aphi didn't pick up COBs??? that makes your whole argument false. also nationals pulled gphi out of recruitment so

By: what

Hi, Gphi's nationals pulled them out of recruitment because their bid list was so small after the massive drops on pref, due in part to the dirty rushing and bid promising if girls dropped out of recruitment.
And yes Aphi did pick up COBs you nitwit, girls who weren't sorted into that house by Panhellenic ended up there because they were given snap bids on bid day/ shortly thereafter

No COBs are in Aphi.. The girls that were on the bid list are the ones in the house. also a COB isn’t a snap bid? Those are completely different.

@the first Lol, how would you even know that aphi got snap bids? Are you in the house or something? This all seems so made up. it’s not ONLY aphi’s fault that gphi didn’t finish recruitment... stop trying to put the blame on one house.

Can confirm, in another house. There are girls who ended up in APhi despite being on our bid list in the past years.


Therefore they dropped out during pref night (and didn't tell anyone so they still ended up with our houses with no intention to going to our bid day.) After bid day, went to go stalk our new members by looking at the bid list, and somehow 2 of those girls went to APhi's bid day. How would they know to do this? Unless they were told to just drop out and show up.

A senior in our house who preferred Us and APhi was also told on pref night to drop outta recruitment and just go to APhi. They were trying to convince her it was better than being in a bottom house.

The fact that the last few Panhellenic presidents and Head recruitment have been from APhi also leads me to believe this is a huge cover up. Aphi always does whatever to get ahead. They gave out candy on house tour nights, by forcing the girls to buy candy and put it out in their rooms for PNM's to take, even though food is not allowed.

I'm calling troll because you should know If your house was "missing women" who attended your pref party and were put on your house bid list, it's because (as you state) these women "dropped out" and therefore couldn't be bid matched due to their not signing a MRABA.

Any women who wish to drop from recruitment after attending pref parties but before signing MRABAs may do so.

Your home's "missing" women definitely were not at your home on Bid Day only because they dropped out after prefs (didn't sign a MRABA) and therefore could not be bid matched to your house. Stop blaming APhi.

OMG you're SO right!!! I totally LOVED Aphi just because they had candy on their beds during house tours!!! That definitely sealed the deal for me!!! :)

I believe that the President of APhi should resign from Panhel immediately. If she does not resign I think the other chapter Presidents should demand her resignation until such time as an investigation into rush violations and what happened to GPhi has been completed. We cannot have someone from a house that has continuously demonstrated zero integrity have any involvement with Panhel. The fact that the numerous reported rush violations against Aphi haven't been investigated has me thinking that we now have some coverup on our hands that needs to be investigated. We have now experienced two back to back years of highly questionable things going on in recruitment and as far as I've heard zero has been done and there is zero accountability. I know our Panhel has a terrible track record on many levels but this lack of investigation of rush violations truly is a new low even by Cal Panhel standards.

Regardless of this COB scandal APhi has still broken numerous rules in order to try and compete with top houses which everyone except APhi themselves admit to... which just makes it more obvious. The only people that see APhi as a top house are in Aphi...

by: ok   

ok so if aphi isn't a top house then why do people care if they had rush violations? I went through rush and now knowing the rules, a lot of houses broke the rules in one way or another so how does one girl promising another girl a bid if she drops really make a difference? like one person promising a bid to another ruined the entire rush for everyone else? I know these things need to be addressed but rush has been over for 2 months and people are still upset? Why? be happy with your pledge class! The right girls ended up in your house and complaining about the new members that you have now is just wrong. if someone was able to convince a girl to drop out of rush so she can join later and it was that easy to manipulate her then the PNM obviously didn't want to be in/wasn't right for any other house anyway.

@ok. Don't even know where to begin with your convoluted 'logic' on why rush violations aren't important. The glue that keeps the system together is integrity in our process. We tell PNMs that there is a level playing field because all the houses are held to the same standards in recruitment. However, If the integrity is lost (and it has been many many times) it is as if we are living a lie. APhi brilliantly demonstrated this year (and in prior years) how gaming the system via skirting the rules and yes, lying can work in a system that has lost its integrity. What made the APhi situation so awful this year was how blatantly the house disregarded the rules and even flaunted their behavior on social media for all to watch. I realize Panhel is a joke and the University is asleep at the switch but when behavior becomes so blatant that even PNMs catch on to the tricks then something is seriously wrong. I am surprised more houses haven't complained about APhi. My house did register a formal complaint but we have heard nothing which is quite sad. We plan to bring it up to our national to see if they can attack the issue at the national level. This kind of shady behavior brings us all down and I for one don't want to be reduced to APhi/ground level!
