a lot of information about the particular chapter can be shared in that short skit, especially if the skits theme is a recap of the last year, and gives both the pnm and the member other topics to talk about when the skit is over.
There are other ways to spend this time. My school switched to no-frills after our first year as a national greek system, and we never regretted it. Everyone hated the skits! Instead, we did slide show/movie day, which was a REAL look at the chapter over the year(s). We still had entrance and exit songs, though, and decorations were over the top for preference round, the only round they were really permitted.
