At my college fraternity recruitment is spring of freshman year. I've not known it to be any different, so I can't compare it to fall-but the fraternities seem to do well enough. As previously said, the fraternities can show the benefits of Greek life all semester long. I also think that it gives the men an opportunity to find the group they really like, and vice versa.
the chapters at my school aren't very big, they range from 25-50 guys maybe. A few years ago they made recruitment "structured" for the men. They get to go around and hang out at the houses, but most guys already know which chapter they will be joining beforehand anyway. Oh and there is Theta Chi at my school too, they do very well and were always fun and good guys. One of my sisters is marrying one! I hope this helps.
