To get back to the original topic, try rushing during the summer. Dave, see if you can get a list of incoming freshmen from the college. During the summer, the brothers can look up whoever lives near them. Say something like, "I hear you're going to XYU in the fall and thought you'd like to know some of the ins and outs of the campus", or something like that. Then meet somewhere, go clubbing, bowling, or whatever.
They don't even have to mention the fraternity, not at first anyway. But that kid will know at least one person, and then you can invite him to a rush function once school begins, and he'll know you.
I know for a fact this works because that's how I (and another high school graduate) got recruited. The three of us actually ended up driving from NY to FL together. Geno and I were Lambda Chis before we even arrived at the college.
