That group might need to see the where-do-we-stand-on-campus survey results.

It might be a wonderful recruitment tool to ask brand new members what there impressions of recruitment were right after recruitment. Maybe not even let the actives see the results, but alums could compile them, so that the following year, you could honestly know what worked and what didn't and what aspects to play up and what to play down.
I totally agree with all of this... it's important for chapters to think about where they are and where they want to be and make cuts based upon BOTH. Of course, though, there is the worry that the legacy at that 100% returns chapter will get cut by everyone else and find herself with only the legacy chapter as an option... I've seen it happen.
