Seriously though. Participating in their philanthropy is the easiest way to get connections. If it is a sport, get a team. With the team, you will have a coach or a liaison and thus an instant connection.

If it is a food event, shut down the kitchen and make everyone go. A couple fraternities over the years did this for my chapters philanthropy. The sisters cannot help but interact with that many members and it gets your name out. Double bonus.

If your philanthropy chair isn't doing his job, can him and make it a combined thing with your social chair. It is that important.

Serenades would work too. Many of the chapters at Oregon have their pledge classes serenade the sorority chapters.

If it is midterms or whatever have a "study break" and invite sororities. Have some food, soda, coffee, pens, pencils, and test books there. Also if you have room have a movie playing. Our greek life office organized this for us and a few people went every year. It would be a nice break from studying and if there are supplies there or anything it could be a nice breather and automatic in. Everyone hates midterms/finals. Obviously not every member would show up so hopefully space wouldn't be an issue.
