When I went to the U of Arkansas, only sophomores could rush. It was awful. The PNMs always felt like they were being watched--pretty much, they were--and there was a ton of cheating by the sororities. They would take freshmen out to dinner, corner them at fraternity parties, etc.
Plus if your rush fell through and you transferred, you then had little to no chance to pledge the next fall, seeing that so many Greek systems don't care for juniors.
