Spending time is key with anyone you want to be your little. Have lunch together, study together if you are in any of the same classes, invite her to go shopping with you, text her after she has an exam to see how it went, be there for her! Spending money on gifts is not as critical (at least I think so), but cards are nice! I've noticed that often women in my chapter will say they want a little, they'll get a heart sister, but then they don't spend time with her, and of course, the new member wants someone else as her big!

While gifts were always nice, my chapter is really big on making posters and signs to hang on each other's doors. During big/lil week people sneek and put posters on your lil's door or things in their mail box as hints as to who their big might be.

My chapter now does somthing like "speed dating" as an ice breaker after the new members get their rose sis. All the sisters who can take littles sit on one side of the table and the the new girls move from chair to chair. Its really funny! Also they do "mystery date" -- again the girls who can take littles will leave anonymous notes and messages that say like "meet me at starbucks -- i'll being wearing something pink" and then they get their and have a little coffee date. Its a great way to meet the new girls and find the ones you "click" with because sometimes during recruitment some girls personality may not shine as much.
