On my campus, and I suppose most others, the chapters who dirty rush receive recruitment infractions which means they have to pay a fine to Panhellenic.
This is usually very effective because chapters don't budget for infractions, so they end up having to take the money from another area of the chapter budget (like formal, social, etc). Basically everybody is scared to death of getting an infraction because they know that losing $ to an infraction could take away from other fun things the chapter wants to have.
Also. depending on the situation, there could be more serious penalties. For example, if a sorority dirty rushed PNMs by hosting an alcohol party at their chapter house, that would also violate Panhellenic Risk Management policies. In addition to an infraction, the chapter would be placed on social probation which would prohibit them from participating Homecoming, Greek Week, or Songfest for a full year.
