Ideas
 
My chapter is in desperate need of ideas to recruit new members through informal recruitment. We currently have about 25 members and we need 35 by May 20th! Our campus is very small (about 940 students) and there are 4 other sororities on campus. We're having a PR blitz this week and a COR blitz in two weeks. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Read I Heart Recruitment. You can buy a PDF version online at www.phiredup.com.

Get in touch with your regional support team for other ideas.

Good luck!

Get with your recruitment adviser and discuss some methods with your chapter consultant. I believe that you have some great alumnae support and other collegiate chapters in the area that might be able to assist with ideas and support as well. Everyone is there to help!

I've sent you a PM. Let me know if you wish to discuss.

Just to tag this on: Do all 25 members want to get 35 more members? Are they willing to work for it? Because without 100% cooperation, you're probably sunk before you start.

I think she meant 10 more members to be AT 35 members.

I certainly hope so.

Skip the "blitzes" and have each member invite at least one, hopefully 2 or 3, women she sincerely likes and thinks would make a good sister to a COB event. If you have COB parties every night (which I am guessing is what you meant) you'll all be ready to tear each others' heads off by the time you're through.

Thanks for the ideas everyone! I've passed them on to our recruitment chair!
