For mixers, usually the fraternity's social chair would just call our social chair. Or, they could get creative like the Fiji's did one time and show up on our doorstep before meeting dressed in island attire and invite us to their luau. That was a fun idea.

Slight UK hijack.
Yeah, I have noticed how it's changed on campus.
Basically, there were two types of events. One type would be for sororities only or for the fraternities only. Examples would be that only sororities participated in Sigma Chi Derby Days while only fraternities participated in y'all's Frat Man's Classic.
Hijack of the hijack: 
Do y'all still host the Delta Zeta Frat Man's Classic?
The other type of event would be an event that both sororities and fraternities could participate in yet there were no teams. Example would be like Greek Sing. Fraternities and sororities participate but not as teams. Sororities versus sororities and fraternities versus fraternities. And any competition during Homecoming - which really wasn't as big a deal back then - was also separated into one for the fraternities and one for the sororities.
Also, Greek week was made up of various types of events sponsored by a chapter or chapters. Yet again, no teaming up of fraternities and sororities.
End of hijacks... for now.
