I would stay away from this question. It was asked of me when I was a PNM, and PNMs asked me when they were going through, and every time it made me really uncomfortable. Even if you think you know the answer and are planning to use it as a conversation starter, don't. Personal anecdote to explain why:
My first year as an active, a bunch of my friends were all dating guys in the same fraternity. One of the PNMs we loved was dating a guy in the same fraternity. When rush rolled around, the girl who was rushing her says, "Oh, I hear you're dating [name redacted]" planning to use it as "Some of my sisters know his friends" or something. It was a little iffy at best, but unfortunately, over break the PNM and her boyfriend had broken up. It quickly became VERY awkward.
(It worked out okay, she was at our house on Bid Day!)
