^^^good advice here. You should all be on the same page as to how to answer difficult questions. Perhaps your advisors and national liaisons can help with this. If it is bad behavior that the whole campus and larger community knows about, all you can do is hold your heads high and show that you have learned from mistakes and are emerging with a stronger and wiser sisterhood. Again, agree with above, emphasize your philanthropy, scholarship, leadership training and sisterhood.
If there are sisters who don't want to take responsibility for actions, don't acknowledge that the chapter's actions led to probation and want to blame the school, others, etc; or who continue in the behavior that led to the probation, then my advice would be to play hardball with them prior to turning them loose on PNM's. They won't help matters.
Perhaps your chapter could bring in a motivational speaker for a retreat/sisterhood event prior to recruitment that could help you re-connect with all of the amazing things your national org and your chapter have to offer so that you enter recruitment strong and energized. Good luck!
