As DeltaBetaBaby said, you have an obligation to all the people that came before to keep your chapter going.

But you also have an obligation to all of the people that came before you to uphold the ideals of the organization, as well, and telling people to "hide" during recruitment REALLY doesn't fit those ideals. Using keeping the chapter open as an excuse to treat your sisters badly is simply unacceptable. Where there is a will, there is a way, and people don't have to sacrifice ideals to recruit successfully. If people do away with basic principles, then they are doing no great service to their founders, who probably sacrificed greatly to found the organization in the first place.
