CLOSED CONTACT shall be defined as conversation between individual sorority members and potential members which shall be limited to Recruitment Parties and simple recognition of potential members outside these parties. Violations of this definition shall include, BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO, blatant contact with potential members such as phone calls, parties given with potential members, inviting potential members to visit member houses, apartments, the chapter house, extended conversation outside of Recruitment parties, and related contact.
