I'm not sure I fully understand what "courting" is. Is that the process by which a sorority (or a fraternity) goes to another sorority/fraternity to try to "win the privilege" of being paired w/ them for homecoming?

At my undergrad campus, our pairs were picked out of a hat. The only thing we did w/ them during homecoming week was to build and ride on the float w/ them. This sounds way more elaborate.

ETA: After reading CarolinaDG's post, are you referring to mixers? We would be asked by the fraternity if we wanted to have a mixer w/ them. Usually it would just be their social chair calling our social chair and saying, "Do you wanna' have a mixer this week?" or something like that.
