I don't see how inviting men to join events would help the new members get to know the active members better.

But anyway, we used to have "buddy days" where you buddied up with a different member twice a week. We did this with our pledge class, but you can do it with actives. In a six- week period, that's 12 girls that they have had a chance to hang out with, that they might not have had otherwise.

Your buddy activity could be walking to classes together, meeting for lunch, studying together, etc. The point is to do something that was part of your normal day, together. It can be something that both the actives and new members look forward to, and it doesn't have to take up any additional time out of the day.
