dirty rushing can occur anytime up to and including the actual recruitment. as soon as the pnm gets her facebook notification from her (soon-to-be) college, she can go on and start accepting people as friends.
it is not "illegal" for a sorority member to be in contact with a pnm until the designated "silence period", when sorority members and pnms are not to converse with or contact one another. often this occurs at the end of the spring semester and carries thru to bid day in the fall(or thru fall until the actual bid day spring semester for those with deferred rush).
one problem that can occur is when either the member or the pnm contact the other during the silence period. a virtual friendship can develop, which might give that sorority an edge with the pnm. it might also backfire on the pnm-she might feel that her "friendship" with the sorority member might give her an edge over the other pnms. pin all her hopes on joining that group and then might not receive a bid from them.
quite a few sororities ask their members to make their profiles inaccessible during the silence period to safeguard against this.
