He gave the Executive Director of Sigma Phi Epsilon a call to find out the status of the rushee in their Fraternity, and when it came up as he had pledged and dropped, Mic gave me a call back to let me know.
The whole process took about 2 hours... 10 minute phone call... 2 hours of waiting... 2 minute phone call.
We pledged him that night.
So make the structure of the Fraternity work for you and your Chapter. That is why it is there.
And the requirement of no initiate of another Fraternity being initiated has been around FAR longer than 1999, even if it hasnt been in writing. Locals may have been the only exception.

Sounds like you did the right thing; I've also had good luck in my dealings with HQ. Whenever I've called needing something, I've received a response, either the same day or only a couple of days later. That goes down the chain, from Executive Director to the general staff.
It's possible to lie, but it's just as possible that a chapter will check up with HQ and get the real story.
