Who reviews resumes and applications to determine who receives bids?

• A. General membership
• B. Executive Board
• C. National chapter
• D. Alumni association

Answer: (B)

Recruitment decisions, including who receives bids, are handled by the chapter’s Executive Board because they oversee membership processes and enforce chapter rules. They review resumes and applications, verify eligibility, and assess whether candidates meet the standards and values of the fraternity. This focused review leads to approving and extending bids to qualified applicants, ensuring the process stays consistent and compliant with established policies.

General membership usually participates in broader governance and events rather than the formal bid decision. The national chapter provides overarching guidelines and support but doesn’t typically conduct the day-to-day bid reviews for a local chapter. The alumni association operates separately, focusing on alumni relations rather than issuing bids for current members.
