You compared your campus to Miami Ohio, where most sorority women have a conservative, preppy look. The belly ring and back tattoo aren't a big deal, because those are easily covered with clothes. I'd remove the lip ring and put in a spacer and maybe just wear a diamond stud in your nose, if not a spacer. You want your rushers to focus on YOU, not your piercings. There has to be more to who you are than your piercings. Let the sororities see that.

Think of recruitment as a job interview and how you are basically judged on the impression that you make in a short amount of time. Would you keep in your stud and ring for a job interview? I'm not saying to be a completely different person for that week, but as Violetpretty said, show off who you are and not allow the women you talk with to see beyond your facial piercings.

Again, it also depends on your campus culture and how prevalent facial piercings are among the sorority women. The same holds true for clothing selection - might be completely different for recruitment than what you wear every other day of the week. Basically you conform so you stand out for WHO you are rather than what you are wearing - if that makes any sense.
