Since fraternities have different rules for recruitment, facebook membership won't be an issue for my chapter.
However, I agree that deactivating your account when there is a much easier & faster way to resolve the situation is pretty excessive. For all those who are saying how lame thefacebook is, and how it's got people's priorities totally out of whack, that's a little "lame" on YOUR part. Just because you might be anti-facebook, you don't have to be judgemental towards others. Especially if they follow the suggestions in this topic and restrict their profile to friends only / change their picture & name, etc!
I know a number of people that have found love or new friends simply through the facebook. It's become a great social tool for college students, and also a great recruitment tool for some fraternities (using their campus announcements to advertise rush events). Granted, I'm not as "addicted" as some because I'm not a current student, I'm registered as an alum. thefacebook has made a big impact at my school though, and I think it's a great tool.
