Other possibilities for advertisements: a paid ad in the student newspaper, flyers in students areas just off campus (so you won't get in trouble), word-of-mouth, facebook ads, flyers in businesses/restaurants that students frequent a bit (ask the owner first).
You can hold rush events in members' apartments or in a coffee shop/popular student hang-out off campus. If you won't get in trouble from your University/College, hold your rush events in common areas on campus, such as in open areas of the student union, dining halls, etc. For example, you could have everybody meet by the couches on the first floor of the student center for info night. That way, you're on campus (which is convenient for everyone) and you won't get in trouble from your Student Life office for an unrecognized group reserving/using meeting rooms because you just casually grabbed some couches in an open area.

I agree! Which is why we'll most likely set something up on Activities Day, but in an area that does not need to reserved
I really like the invitation idea!
