Is Your School Private Or Public?
If it's public they can't institute deferred rush of any kind unless you agree to it. If you're private, that presents a different set of problems. Sophmore-only rush is a very bad idea. You would be well advised to organize fraternity and sorority alumni and approach the university officially, with attorneys. If the administration has already told you they're going to impose it, then take them at their word. These people tend to be either virulently anti-greek, or just ivory-tower academics. Administrators are used to dealing with students, and tend to overpower them. They don't like dealing with alumni, especially organized corps of alumni who can't be intimidated.
Best advice to you: make sure you know what you want (don't equivocate on the issue), then get your alumni to deliver the news to the administration.
