I never heard about the weighing in, but weight plays a part in all aspects in life and so I do think weight is an issue during recruitment at some schools.
I would look for well groomed members, size doesn't play a part in that. Some chapters would like to think that they are a bunch of thin women, but in reality we all come in different shapes and sizes so it is impossible to have a chapter of all skinny girls.
In my years in the sorority world, eating disorders or more common than being over weight, but both are important issues that should be addressed in a chapter setting.
