My experience at UGA in the 1990s is that if your Mom was an XYZ, and you pledged XYZ, she would certainly be there for your initiation, and if she lived nearby, maybe she'd be there for pledging.
Our experience was that Mom and Dad would come for the next home football game, or even Homecoming, and we'd encourage our pledges (because that's what we called them in the dark ages) to have them come check out the house, meet the sisters and make sure their baby hadn't sold her soul to the devil.
We had a nice parents weekend in the Spring, and we encouraged parents to send flowers to the house during Rush (which is what we called it). But bid day was for the pledges and the sisters, who all needed time to decompress.
