by: PNMIs SDT still participating in formal rush this year, even after last year's disaster? I feel like they would ruin rush for a lot of girls

Not sure it increased overall placement of pnms, which was the goal. It did, though, help the non-big six houses perhaps bc it shrank the pool of pnms and likely let them get girls that otherwise would have gone big six if quota had been higher. APhi, KD, ADPi , DG and AXiD pretty much all had relatively stronger PCs than years past

Yeah but what happens to those girls who are stuck with SDT on pref is horrible. Normally they would go to one of the normal houses they preffed if they didn't end up high enough on the bid lists of one of those houses and didn't match because of the guaranteed bid thing, but since SDT is so small and desperate, they will end up there if that's one of their pref houses. so if you don't list them, then you won't get a bid at all now if you leave them off your list. if you do put them down, you are guaranteed a bid but it will be to SDT if you don't get high enough on your other choices' lists. so you are stuck. they ruined recruitment for a lot of girls last year. no one in formal wants them. i don't understand why they keep participating. it has to be humiliating and it certainly isn't good for their image. if someone doesn't want them, they can't make it happen. they're just not comparable for someone who wants a real sorority experience.

It's true that they offer a different experience from that of the other houses

They're likely doing formal on orders from nationals, I doubt they're looking forward to it any more than the PNMs are.
It would be cool if a bunch of girls made a commitment to pledge them and help them turn things around, although that would probably never happen.

That would be incredibly selfless, but given the mean spiritedness of everyone on this site, it isn't likely to happen

This is nothing you can do to avoid SDT. All you can do is have the best recruitment you can, have a positive attitude @SDT (people talk and EVERYONE has friends everywhere). If you are a highly desirable PNM, they will be off you schedule after the first round (Because you will rank them the lowest and everyone else will ask you back, therefore in that case your desires matter) So if they are on your list and you rank them lowest, then that means you were not all that special to someone you actually liked and you can just put your big girl panties on and deal.

PRAY that enough houses put you high enough on their lists so you can drop them first round. The more rounds they end up showing up on your list, the more likely you will be to have them at pref. It completely sucks and is selfish that they are making this happen to pnms again this year..

Don't require recs, I'm pretty sure. The chapter at Bama is very similar and they don't require them.
