Sisters can correct me if I'm wrong but I'm positive that I've seen it in the Sisters Only portion of our website.

I have it. If you'd like it, pm me with your email address. :)

I have a downloaded copy of the Manual of Information (15th edition). I can't remember where I got it from, but it clearly wasn't from my own organisations

I assure you that the google knows where to find the MOI.

Thanks for the offers. I responded to the first offer, and now have the 17th edition.

No wonder I hadn't seen most of this. Very few of these were written (or conceived, I'd bet) when I pledged in 73. We had a Panhellenic council as an afterthought; our primary governing body was the Unified Fraternal Organization (UFO), encompassing fraternities and sororities, including the BGLOs. I was chapter president my junior year and UFO president senior year. The extent of Panhel involvement in our rush was to set the dates for fall rush; rush was totally unstructured, there was no silence period, and there was no limit to the number of bids a woman could receive.

But now that I see the dates on many of these agreements, I understand why it is so unfamiliar to me.

Most of what I've learned about NPC I learned from Greek Chat.

I think that in our neck of the woods (our neck being above the Mason-Dixon) things were a lot more loosey-goosey in general, except maybe at Pitt & Penn State, and that lasted well into the 1980s. A lot of things have come about or are more strictly enforced primarily as risk management issues. Case in point: I remember as a freshmen, rushees being invited to mixers. Just a few years later, that didn't fly.

I'm betting that Texas and Bama etc etc were having very structured rushes in 1973.

We did that at Pitt in the mid-eighties. Good times! :)

Google is definitely your friend. I found an 18th edition updated January 2013 with very little trouble. And 17th editions all over the place. It appears that most of these are downloadable from the Greek Life pages of Universities...
