Support from the campus - a Greek system that wants all the chapters to be at the best they can, not one that delights in having a "bottom chapter" or two to pick on.
This is far more important that anything else, IMO. Even if one chapter does manage to "turn around" by taking a great pledge class or getting more involved on campus, it just means another chapter will go to the bottom and the cycle will start all over again.
Alumnae, advisors and HQ can be beneficial if they 1) offer CONSTRUCTIVE criticism and 2) don't try to make the chapter into something it's not. It is possible to improve your reputation without compromising your standards.
