Cool! Maybe we met! Things have changed slightly from when I went through a few years ago...so don't be misled!

We most certainly DO have hotboxing rules! I was a recruitment officer for my chapter for two years, and I believe that a max. of 2 sisters per PNM, with a 3rd sister allowed to stop by/say hello, but the one of the 3 must be on her way quickly. The vague language of this rule is actually quite amusing. Friend Bear was actually well-known for hotboxing; I should mention that this was perhaps why I liked them so much first round, they really made PNMs feel special! I am not sure how strictly this rule was enforced when I was a freshman, however. Not that it is STRICTLY enforced now, but chapters are aware of it and hopefully train their members not to do it.

And that's great about the mudding convos! A conversation like that would certainly put any PNM at ease who was worried about sororities being too prim and proper!
