Other factors at Illinois:
The decision to rush is not necessarily a careful one. A lot of women just sign up the night of orientation, recs aren't needed, it costs like $40...plenty of people do it on a whim and then decide it isn't for them.
Rush happens during the school year, not in a bubble before school starts. Given the time to visit 18-20 chapters (the number has fluctuated only slightly in the last 15 years), you are missing out on a lot of other stuff during that timeframe.
When I was there, the rho chi selection process totally sucked. I don't know if that's still the case, but many of the stories I hear about awesome rho chis are very counter to my experience.
