Do they help us not get cut or something?

My perspective: It provides extra info to the chapters about a PNM. When you have cuts to make after the first day (and you've met hundreds of women), you don't have much info to go on and you may not even remember them all.
How a rec is used by a chapter in its decision-making is probably treading into membership selection territory in my eyes.
I will say that I have known girls with recs who've been cut by chapters they've had recs for (esp. at bigger schools where everyone has them). It doesn't "save you."
