I understand the nightmare you got into with the weeping members that one year, but the all Greek event just seems like such a good idea. If not bid day, certainly a big event soon after bid day or something.
I just know that at my campus there was a lot of rhetoric during recruitment about "it's great to be Greek, Panhellenic, blah, blah, blah," but when it actually came down to it, I don't think we were ever together until Greek Week, if then. Sure you had socials and events at homecoming, but unless I'm misremembering, very little was all-Greek, ever.
