As far as the pumpkins go -- I have no idea why the other sorority chose that. I know their pledge period begins in mid-September and lasts till Hell Week in the Spring. If I'm not mistaken, their pledges carry the pumpkins around till the end of Fall semester.
These two sororities, to my knowledge, haven't held rush let alone pledge anyone in recent years. I visited my collegians during Greek Week and another local (one that was dormant while I was in school) is going strong, and from what I hear from my collegians...this group has a great bunch of girls and are NOTHING like the locals in the past. Good for them.

I looked at the UH website. Was it Beta Beta Gamma you're referring to? I think they were Korean back in the day.
I was happy to see that Hui Po'okela and the Waikiki Acrobatic Troupe are still active! I was co-advisor to the first and active in the other.
