I will add that it seems that for many universities that pull students mostly from the same area (i.e. students from State U all live in State), fraternities will call graduated HS seniors attending State U and hold functions over the summer. I have heard of cookouts, NASCAR races, even outings for steak dinners and a strip club (NOTA BENE that the strip club is hearsay, but the other outings I know of people who went on them). This allows the guys to get a chance to know fraternity members, and also get an idea of who wants them (i.e. Went to one event for ABC but never got another call, has gone to 3 XYZ events) before school and rush start.
Sorority members are pretty strictly prohibited from holding this sort of thing. SOME sorority members might participate and help in fraternity rush, but it's a but frowned on.
