At the University of Central Florida, we have over 700 girls coming through rush (I've heard 900 from some people). We do not have pictures. I think that pictures are used in the wrong way. I have a few friends at the University of Florida (where pictures are still used) and from what I understand, the pictures end up being used in a way that was not intended. We tell the girls that their pictures will be used only so that there is a face to go with the name. At UF, I hear that the sorority houses divide the applications into the "pretty girls" and "ugly girls". I feel that it is as if the ladies are being pre-judged. I want their face and personality to be in front of me at the same time; this way, I can get a better clue as to who the girl really is.
