The above were some suggestions that can applied in a way that best suits NBO or any GLO. I think that recruitment, finance, scholarship/academics, sisterhood, p.r. and new member educator are priorities at this early stage in their development and ought to be the primary focus. With their small size, each sister will have more than one responsibility. For example, public relations can be the resposibility of the recruitment chair before and after rush because these two jobs go hand in hand. Also sisterhood, social, and formal chair (if they want one) can be the same committee chair because they involve similar skills- planning parties and special events. The treasurer can do fundraising and scholarship can do risk management. NBO can combine similar jobs until there are more sisters to fill the positions. NBO can have as many or as few committee chairs and E-Board members as the sisters deem necessary. The responsibility of president is to organize and oversee the executive board and the vice president to organize and oversee the minor board/committee chairs. I suggest that the new members also serve on committees in order to be prepared for the responsibilities of being sisters as part of their training.

I edited my post because I just read PnguinTrax's post so I'll add some more suggestions.
Executive Board:

President: leads and sets the tone for the sorority

Executive VP: assists the president and oversees the minor board committees.

Recruitment: plans recruitment parties and public relations

New Member Trainer: fosters a sense of sisterhood among new members and teaches them about the sorority

Treasurer: collects dues, sets budgets for committees, and fundraising

Scholarship: study hours, keep members up to date on resources available at your school, resume writing, and risk manangement

Secretary: in charge of correspondence in addition to recording minutes of meeting
