One of the things we do that I find is really helpful is to require the NMs to do interviews of the active members and alumnae. They can be over the phone, e-mail, or in person (we try for this one!). We require a certain number of interviews (say 20/ NM) over the course of the pledge period. We assign half of these, so the NMs are required to talk with actives that they aren't already friends with.

They're really quick (5-10 minutes) and I loved them as both a NM and as an active sister! I get to learn a lot about the new members of my family and, as they weren't a pre-planned activity, I got to do it on my own time.
