Another good question, and I can see how these might be confused or lumped together with charitable event t-shirts. I would say no but none of this is my call in the first place. I think sisters and brothers should wear rush shirts only. If I was thinking of rushing a certain house, I would be inclined to stop someone wearing that houses' shirt and ask questions about their house that only a brother or sister should be answering. It would give me a chance to question or check them out and maybe talk them into rushing my house and eventually recruit them. I think it goes back to the exclusivity of the letters. But again, it "ain't" my call to make anymore.
