Question When rush conflicts with religious observances...

Just wondering how your schools/GLOs handle it if rush/recruitment happens to conflict with sisters'/brothers' or PNMs' religious observances.

I was reading uwgirl's rush thread, and saw that she finished up round 1 yesterday and has to wait until Tuesday to find out about round 2... Yom Kippur is Monday and I'm curious if that is why she won't find out until the next day.

Round 1 at my school used to be Friday night / Saturday during the day, so if you were an Orthodox Jew you were SOL. We had one Orthodox sister (she joined us via COB) who could not rush during round 1 for that reason... we gave her special permission to miss round 1, but she had to give up her right to vote on round 2 invitations.

The schedule of Catholic Masses was such that PNMs involved in sorority rush could attend Saturday evening Mass if they booked it from their last party... sisters, of course, had to vote at that time. Catholic sisters had to get special permission to miss one of their round 2 parties to go to Mass on Sunday. And how do fraternity brothers and PNMs handle such things - do they just disappear for an hour?

(Can you tell the greek community and religious communities at my school did not exactly get along? )
