*I'm sure it's probably easier said than done, but it would probably be a good idea to move towards going "dry." If students associate you with partying and drinking, they probably aren't going to want to join that badly. Reason: They can do that with their friends without paying dues! They don't need GDP to drink.
*Get your meetings organized I suggest having your secretary or president type up an agenda for every meeting that outlines what will be discussed. Anyone who wants to speak NEEDS to be on this agenda. There sohuld also BE NO SIDE CONVERSATIONS. No one should be speaking unless they're on the agenda or they have a question and have been addressed by proper procedure. Stick to the agenda and use parliamentary procedure to keep things on track. We used this in my sorority and meetings were rarely ever longer than an hour.
