Summer rush events aren't mandatory, but as I and the other guys in big houses in the SEC have said, particularly the top houses will have already either given a lot of bids or at least know who they are going after before rush starts, so it is very good if he can get to a few events at houses he is interested in.
As I've mentioned, Arkansas chapters typically have rush parties in Memphis, Little Rock, Hot Springs, and Dallas (choice of one or two of the four).

Overall, though, it's the bigness of the car that counts the most. Because when something bad happens in a really big car – accidentally speeding through the middle of a gang of unruly young people who have been taunting you in a drive-in restaurant, for instance – it happens very far away – way out at the end of your fenders. It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
