COBing can be good

Poster Message:
COB can be a great thing. My house who is generally considered a solid middle tier "rising" house COBs every once in awhile and some of our most outstanding and a lot of council members were COBs. In informal recruitment you have to talk to one girl for about an hour and you also talk in groups so you get to know a lot more about a girl and her character in informal than formal. My house has taken friends of friends before but that "friend does not talk to their friends during the informal process. And there's plenty of women who get in only on their own merit. But also I agree that there probably are a lot of houses who do it solely on friends, and that can create a bad, mediocre cycle. Overall, I think COB is a good thing, even though it has its flaws. But so does formal recruitment
