Speaking of Big 12 schools, it looks like Kansas State uses a version of random matching that takes into consideration the size of chapters. Presumably this gives the eleven Homecoming groupings approximately equal numbers of people. The pairings for Fall 2005 Kansas State Homecoming are on their Greek Affairs web site:

Worth noting, perhaps: NPHC sororities are included in the groupings, and so is one local women's group.

The overall result is that each "pairing" consists of one or two sororities and two or more fraternities. Not saying this is better or worse than the "courting" system, just different.
