We had always been one of the smaller chapters on campus where total is 85 and we had 45 to 50 members. About four years ago, my chapter's numbers became dangerously low. I had been an alumna for a while at this point so I didn't know about this problem until it had been resolved. There were about a dozen active sisters, and they wound up with almost fifty pledges! I'm not exactly sure how they did it, but they have been thriving ever since.
