Your recommendation was welcomed! I think we will just have to go with it; if we just can't get a response, maybe that is just a sign that they are not interested. I would like to do something, but I'm not going to [nor can I] force them to show up.
No, I understood what you meant. And I will say again, all Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. undergraduate chapters must have their "official" activities approved by the Graduate Advisor(s) and the Graduate Advisory Council. Those are in my Sorority's internal documents.

If you want to hangout and it is not a school night, then by all means go to a "Gameworks", "Dave and Busters" or "Jillians" for a fun day or your campus' recreational center.

The key is the professors at my graduate school started providing extra credit if students attended the seminars presented by the Undergrad Chapters. Most seminars are on simple stuff like avoiding alcohol infractions and police interactions; date-rape; breast cancer, etc. The afterward, the undergrads would hangout somewhere.

I KNOW this because I was graduate advisor. I am telling you these are our rules...
