My guess is that most likely, yelling is not involved - just pressure. At least that is the way it might allegedly happen with respect to fraternities.

As a follow up to this, does "hot-boxing" apply to family members?

For example, if you were to go to a family reunion and had sisters, your mother, both grandmothers, aunts, cousins etc. who are all ABCs and they were pressuring you to join ABC. Would that apply as well or does "hot-boxing" refer only to actual recruitment by the specific chapter? And if it is the specific chapter, what if some/most/all these relatives were from the same chapter? Where does NPC draw the line between a family member discussing their sorority experience with their sister/daughter/et al. and "hot-boxing"?

And could sorority rush "hot-boxing" also apply to guys? i.e. If a bunch of guys surrounded a girl going through rush and basically told her she should go ABC? Even if they weren't doing so on behalf of the ABC chapter?
