recruitment
by: Read This
If you are a non-legacy, I thought this is something you need to read. (Copied from a discussion) It explains why you should be thankful your name is on anyone's bid list.
Last year after the 2nd round, there were lots of pretty first-time Greek PNM's (with great recs.) that we wanted to keep on our list but we had to cut them to accommodate the large # legacies we had going through recruitment. Believe me cutting girls isn't easy for the houses either! So anyway, if you aren't a legacy, be extremely grateful you get a bid to any house because the quota for non-legacies is pretty low. This is sample of how we choose which girls to keep and or cut.
First choice: cute, quality legacies with great resumes
second choice: cute, quality sophomore legacies who have great resumes
third choice: quality freshmen legacies with good resumes
fourth choice: quality sophomore legacies with good resumes
fifth choice: cute, quality first time Greek PNMs with great resumes
In other words, you are not too good for any house.

You are completely WRONG!! Each house has their own rules about legacies. Most houses allow for dropping legacies, some require it after the first round, others after the first invitational, some just offer awards for pledging legacies, some allow for legacies that get to pref to still be put way down the sororities lists.
You do not know what you are talking about, so just STOP!

great message... i did not even get the house I was a legacy of bc there were so many of us legacies that they could not take all of us... still friends with the girls in that house but they did take 80 percent legacies that year and I hear they have the same problem this year... Kappa, Tri Delt and Pi Phi have this problem the worse so if you want those and you do not know lots of people that will fight for you then you can forget it.

#15 She said SOME houses have to get permission from their Nationals to cut she did not say ALL houses have to. You are an idiot and do not know what you are talking about. I know for a fact that we have to contact Nationals before recruitment even starts to get permission to cut since we have so many legacies coming through. I will be honest and tell you they did not let us cut as many as they did last year. Also we had to cut them on day one or we could not cut them at all. Maybe your chapter does not have those rules but ours does.
