I payed plenty of attention when I registered for recruitment and when I arrived on campus. I, not my parents, was told that my parents were not supposed to contact me during the week but if an emergency came up they could call the Dean of Students office. Nothing said that we would lose access to our cell phones. We were not told until after we had moved in and taken a tour of the campus and done several activities that we couldn't have them. There was a barbecue, but at this point, it was just a rumor. I actually had to call my mom after she had left campus to tell her that I wouldn't have my phone. It was really ridiculous. I don't know if PNMs used to be informed ahead of time, but I certainly wasn't and I am a very aware person. If it had been mentioned in an email, I would have read it. And VandalSquirrel, the boys are required to move into the fraternity houses at the end of their recruitment with the exception of one or two of the houses.
