A closer analogy to what I'm seeing is everyone on my street having an open house on the same day, and inviting everyone in the neighborhood. There are some who don't want to come to my house, or to my neighbor's house, but want to visit everyone else. Why should that person have to visit the homes s/he doesn't want to? Seems to me that rush is the same way. Just because there are 8 time slots for parties and someone gets invitations to 8 parties, why must she go to all 8? Wouldn't "mutual" selection dictate that both sides get to "cut"?

Yes, and they both can. It's just that by going when you have the opportunity but not so much the desire that you open yourself to things you may not have seen before. "rush crush" applies on both sides of the aisle.
And they should visit all the houses in your neighborhood because it's the polite thing to do. Just as you all will be neighbors and therefore should have some knowledge of and level of friendship with each, PNMs will be members not only of the chapter they pledge but the overall PH community and getting to know them and what's meaningful to them is advantageous to all.
