I think our problem has two parts: first, we can't "legally" advertise on campus, because we don't have campus recognition. So that puts having on-campus events, like speakers, and resume writing how-to's out. The other part of the problem is that I think the girls are dropping out a) because of the time commitment, and b) because they can't figure out why it's worth it to pledge. Maybe we're not welcoming them enough, maybe we're not giving them enough. I think they come in expecting a Greek experience of a huge university, and then decide it's not worth the time. So I really don't know how to communicate the close-knitedness (excuse my made up word), and I guess I'm just frusturated because I see girls who we genuinely like leaving us.
