If you're a freshman and can't wait to rush, someone luring you in with "join our group NOW because you can" is probably pretty tempting if you are only fed BS and don't have the whole story.

We've never done anything like that [as far as I know]. We are concerned about them being manipulated about all of this, and although these groups aren't even Greek [yet], a stretch is to consider it dirty rushing. The freshman girls were told that should something happen this semester, they wouldn't be included since they don't have the credit & GPA requirements yet, but they will be included in future semesters. They were told all of this, mind you, after we cracked down on the groups for not telling them those rules and even for using the letters of the organizations they are 'going to become' on their web pages.
Formal begins the middle of February and we get back to school at the end of January, so I'll see if I can arrange some sort of informational session at the beginning of the semester. I just want these girls to actually come so they can hear it all.
