VTMom,
I freely admit that I was an executive secretary (some might say helicopter parent) for my daughter's recruitment experience: collating info, making initial contacts. Since your D is so busy during her last semester in hs, you may want to do the same. Even though VATech has deferred rush, your D would want to make the initial contacts by June so she has plenty of time to interview with the alums throughout the summer. She may not have an opportunity to interview in your area when she's in Blacksburg.
There was a Virginia father/GCer whose daughter had a very successful recruitment at Alabama this past fall. Although there was no Greek affiliation in the family, they did pursue the recs and made sure she had one to each house.
One thing I really like about VATech deferred rush is that the groups have casual get-togethers in the fall. There may be a Grey's Anatomy viewing at the Kappa House one night and then an OC night at the Alpha Phi House. I think this promotes a more natural environment and conversations are less stilted.
