EPIC FAIL doesn't even begin to cover it and I really wish I knew what that group's HQ was smoking when they dreamed this plan up.
Girls going through regular formal rush are not necessarily the girls who want to be part of a colony. It's a LOT of work and that's why sorority colonies-to-be generally have one day at the beginning of formal rush to announce their presence and then bow out. All Tri Sigma would have accomplished if they did what you propose is probably wasting a lot more money on decorations and such.

That's how most colonizations are done. Interviews are conducted by a team of alumnae (old and new) and then another chapter is brought in to do a pref or other party. Very standard procedure.
