But I guess the other side of that argument is if they chose a school with intense Greek life and didn't investigate, that's their issue.

Wow. No, she never said that. She said that in spite of girls who are clueless about rush except for the info they get from the school, they do manage to get enough participants to carry it off.
And what do you mean - "get them"? Just because they changed the name to recruitment, doesn't mean it really is and sorority women are going to their houses knocking on their doors like the Army or Hare Krishnas. They get the information on Greek life - just like they get information on housing, athletics, and other facets of college - before they begin classes. If they get there and don't know how to drop/add classes, where the office is to buy tickets for football games, or how to participate in rush, and don't bother to investigate it or ask questions if this is something they have an interest in, that's really their own damn fault.
I find it amusing that someone who is such a proponent of personal responsibility thinks that young adult women need their hands held every step of the way as far as joining a sorority is concerned.
