At bama on pref night, "strict silence" is enforced meaing no one is allowed to talk at all between parties or on the way to sign pref cards. PNMs can not talk to each other and are not even supposed to talk to their rho chis unless they have a question...no chit chat. No one is allowed to talk until after pref cards are signed and then PNMs are still not allowed to talk to sorority women. This year bid day was on a Sunday and bids were distributed at 5pm. The PNMs were only allowed to leave their rooms on Sunday from 10-2 for church.
Serious question; not trying to be snarky -- what pupose does this serve?
Normal silence serves the purposes above. Crazy restrictive silence just breeds resentment among non-Greeks because their Greek friends can't talk to them or because it's seen as snobbery when they're unaware it's a rule.
