Fraternities at my school can and do have women at their rush events. It usually wasn't the women of a particular sorority, but women in general (both greek and not).

Most fraternities would just ask their sweethearts, little sisters, girlfriends of brothers, etc. to come by the house for dinner or whatever, and they would make small talk with rushees. Even women they didn't specifically invite (especially freshmen women) were more than welcome to drop in, hang out, and enjoy the free food. The message to the rushees was clear: We're popular with the ladies.

A few went all out, though, and did some questionable things. I have heard stories of fraternities renting limos that were sent to pick up rushees and bring them to the house, and in the back of the limo would be *ahem* "female companionship". I think that sort of thing has been cracked down on since my day, though.
