They would attend mixers (but couldn't dress to theme, or had to change into street clothes before mixers opened), and formals. Mostly they would duck out of any pictures.

Since recruitment is in January, it would be too restrictive for a Rho Gam not to be allowed to live or interact with actives. It would be like equating Rho Gams with hermits!

I would assume at ANY time, that class projects are unrestricted. Just like even during "strict silence" PNMs and Actives can work together on a project. Sorority life should never get in the way of academics.
On small campuses if the RCs are to be truly anonymous it really has to be stringent. It's actually very restrictive for RCs on my campus, but it comes with the territory. (And I mean to be honest I never understood the big deal...it's just a couple of weeks.) I always went out as a RC, and had just as much fun with the other RCs as I did with my sisters.

I seriously doubt you'd find a campus Panhellenic anywhere that would encourage Greek life to come before class.
