While Theta Nu Xi is not a Latina sorority, I can echo the differences in how pledging is viewed across different regions. Theta Nu Xi was founded in the south and our intake process is private until the neos come out. Up here in the northeast, many of the cultural orgs don't know how to deal with a private process. They don't understand the concept.
Regardless, Theta Nu Xi's intake process is private no matter what campus we're on. Personally, I prefer privacy. I don't want to ever hear my undergraduates talking publicly about their process. It's too easy to get drawn into a conversation about how "hard" they pledged and nothing good ever comes out of that.
