My chapter does this...

When I was a new member, the initiates who were eligible to take a little were listed for us. The potential bigs had to be in good standing, did not have a little at that point, and were not in their final semester. (Most of my pledge class had our hearts set on someone who was graduating/ had at least one little, and there were several underclassmen who did not have a little.)

Anyway, a list of those eligible was given to each member of my class, and we chose from that list in the order of our preference. I believe we were allowed to list 5 potential bigs. Then, we returned our big list to the new member educator. The potential bigs also made a list of preference. The lists were compared and matched.

When I took my little, the new members made a list of preference, and the potential bigs got a phone call asking if we were willing to take so-and-so as a little.

Hope that helps!
