Also, I'm not sure, but it may be that the "social budget" entails things other than mixers with fraternities - it may include the formal and things that are sisterhood functions only. I'm sure everyone's different on that score.

I do agree it should be disclosed to rushees by the sorority, for the reasons DGTess mentioned. Maybe not at the first round (Hi! Welcome to ABC! We can't have mixers for a year!) but the second or third party.

It can also be a hell of a good weeder-outer to get rid of the women who only wanted to join for the mixer/party aspect - and sometimes the groups on probation are the ones who do have the biggest party reputation (warranted or not). As much as it sucks, it's a chance for them to regroup with people who really want to be there for the girls, not for the boys.
