val,

Careful not to overplay your hand there. Know which organizations you're dealing with and know how they'll react to your policies. If you're at a public school, a heavy handed greek advisor can mean bad things for the school.

Perhaps, if organizations are not honoring the deferred rush system, they don't see its value? Rather than simply punishing those which do not comply, consider the goal of the policy -- to promote better adjustment to campus life, to keep grades up, etc.

Perhaps there is middle ground to be found? Perhaps do away with deferred rush so long as organizations' pledge classes maintain a certain GPA? Perhaps then, there will be an incentive for these organizations to do what they can do best -- give these new kids a social network to support them while adjusting to campus life.

Dealing with fraternities is going to be different than dealing with sororities. The NIC-type organizations are much more 'hands off' when it comes to this type of thing.
