I know your line of thinking and I understand it. But there's a combination of three things which make this not good for their recruitment and longstanding tradition of pledging some of the best the University has to offer.
a) The likelihood of the Nationals not being from an SEC school with no understanding of SEC rush and the typical guy the fraternities are looking for. Likewise, not being from the South which could be a shot across the bow to start with. Nationals likes to send their weirdest Yankees whenever they come around, I would be very surprised if they do anything but that.
b) The unfamiliarity with the Rush process on the part of the pledges and not have been completely ingrained in UA fraternity culture.
c) the lack of alcohol as a result of nationals coming. That alone will probably kill their rush of the guys that Phi Delt has been having for quite sometime.

I ran across this thread during a google search and decided to comment.
Do you think the Phi Delt national organization will be that involved in the rush process?
With regard to point "b" I'm guessing the pledges will get some rush help from some of the older members and in my experience, they can probably get around your point "c" if they decide to risk having off-campus rush parties with alcohol present.
I heard from an insider that the charter isn't suspended for any definite period of time but only until the colony is able to get it back. Can anyone confirm this?
