My school did alot to promote recruitment:
*The semester before, we held Sorority Info Nights in 2 of the main locations on campus so that girls could meet women from the different groups, ask questions about recruitment, and sign up if they were interested.
*During Week of Welcome (the big week when the new freshmen move in and start orientation) we held a Panhellenic Sorority Brunch. At the brunch, we had every chapter president speak about being Greek and the experiences they've had, a couple of Rho Chi's talk about recruitment in general, and the girls get to eat a bunch of good food and interact with sorority members (an equal number of women from each sorority).
*Every sorority house had a "____ says Go Greek!" banner up in front.
*Each sorority was assigned a specific area of campus to do "____ says Go Greek" sidewalk chalk on.
*Panhellnic gave us all a TON of "Go Greek" flyers and told each chapter to hang theirs in a different area of campus (so the whole campus got covered).
*We had "Go Greek" tee shirts that Panhellenic gave to every sorority member to wear before recruitment.
*Panhellenic designated Wednesday as Wear Your Letters Day.
