Sorry to say, but I do believe that this is a fair question.

When I was active at a smaller school we asked that sisters with nose/eye/mouth (including tongue) piercings remove them during rush. These were women that we love, and we love them with their peircings, but it is distracting during recruitment. It makes it much easier to just take it out. Not only that but as someone else mentioned at a lot of place (again particularly in the south) we treat rush like a job interview... here is what we have, here is what you have, where do we go from here?
Unfortunately for some of us we don't have the luxury of not doing to the total rush thing, (matching outfits, balloons and decorations everywhere, decorating cars, etc!) It isn't as laid back as many places, although I really wish it were!

Also, just some FYI weed wacker wire is the perfect size if you are wanting to make sure it doesn't close up.

We have the same policy - all non-ear piercings have to come out for recruitment. It presents a better image of your chapter.
