She did that and on bid day she did not receive a bid from that house. All week she was honest and vulnerable and they were intentionally or unintentionally lying. The sorority she received a bid from had made a derogatory remark to her so she politely declined their bid. We spoke to panhel today and they said the sorority that dirty rushed her needs to fix the problem and we should call their nationals. If we call their nationals it could create a blackballing issue for her if she decides to rush again. We asked if she could do informal but panhel said no. I truly do not believe that this sorority was malicious in their intent but that something happened with calculations BUT someone needs to fix or correct the mistake.

Re: bolded #1.
We weren't there. Don't know what was said. Can't even speculate. I will say that recruitment is exhausting and these are young women running on very little sleep. And I mean both the pnms and the actives.
Re: bolded #2. If your daughter attended pref, she was on the sorority's bid list. However, apparently she wasn't high enough on the bid list before they reached quota. Nothing "happened with calculations". That's how it works. It's math. And there's no "someone" to "fix or correct the mistake" because there wasn't a mistake. It's how the numbers worked out for your daughter. If it is helpful for you to learn more about RFM (release figures methodology) let us know. Because it really is math.
