I think that is really true. I think one of the most appealing things about a fraternity is tradition and I think it is hard to grasp that from a chapter you heard was just starting. Also, I find that a new chapter sort of scares old chapters, so the fangs come out in the rumor mill and etc. Third, the chapter is still finding there place, not just with recruitment but with the brotherhood aspect, which can sometimes be really relevant to the possible recruit.
It is hard, and I just hope we can overcome it. Coramoor is right with staying postitive, if you defeat yourself before the game starts, well you never have a chance to see how the game plays out, its just hard though because this is our 4th recruitment period, and it just doesnt seem to be working right, and every recruitment we do our best to improve, and make it more successful.
Right now only time will tell
