I imagine McCallan is like us, in that we rush mostly incoming freshmen in that summer. I mean, a lot of them are within an hour or so driving distance, so its not a big deal for them to drive over for a band party or something. If its farther, they'll usually just come to one of the beach parties or a party in Atlanta or Charlotte or something. We rarely rush sophomores unless they are like friends of current brothers, who for parental reasons or something couldn't rush their freshmen year. Usually we don't even rush those guys, its just a given that they'll be in the next pledge class. As for the HQ and University restrictions on parties... the school has all kinds of rules, but fraternities know which ones must be followed. For example, the biggest ones we follow are no alcohol during actual formal rush, and not bringing kids to parties during orientation (CWE weekend @ AU). Those are the ones which have really busted fraternities in the past. Most of the others we can get around. Also, I don't even know what the HQ rules on rush and pledgeship are. I was pledge trainer my junior year, but I guess we just don't really pay attention.
