So if we keep using this false terminology, it's no wonder that rushees think that they have the upper hand and can pick and choose, when actually the selection process is mutual and in some cases, skewed far more towards the sororities.
I don't know if I agree with that definition. Military recruitment isn't just one sided. People looking to join the military have a choice of service groups, and the military definitely has criteria to join. That is mutual selection.

People "looking to join" the military don't need to be recruited, and therefore don't fit the definition.
