Kansas City, to answer your question... yes, the other two chapters have the same problem that we do. It is not as if we have a ton of girls on campus flocking to the other two sororities. We all have the same problem of attracting girls to events.

And when you say to have something formal... what do you mean by that? Are you saying formal recruitment?

And to violetpretty.. I think that those two ideas are very good ones. Even if we continue to have informal recruitment, I think they would help in getting girls to come to events. Thanks!

And we do actually have incentives. We had started a "recruitment point system" a few years ago. We haven't used it for a year, but the girls are going to start doing it again. Basically the girls earn points for new people they bring to a recruitment event, for sending out person invites, for creating recruitment posters, etc. The person at the end of the recruitment period who has the most points wins something special. I'm actually meeting with the Recruitment Chair today, so I'll suggest that we broaden the scope of the system to maybe run all semester long, so as to encourage the girls to gets names and contact info of PNMs onto a list the entire year, and not just in the few weeks before bid day.
