Make it a chapter bylaw (if it isn't a national one) that every member MUST be actively involved in one other campus activity, two is even better. Jobs (on- or off-campus) do not count. Too many women join a sorority and then never join anything else or let their other activities go and forget what it's like to meet new people - they just stay in the sorority bubble.
Rush your butts off this semester. Take a pledge class even if no one else does. The point is to get you to a comparable size with the other groups going into fall rush. Ask the Greek life office for names of women who rushed and were dropped by the other groups. No I am not suggesting you are taking their "rejects" - rather these women have had a semester to realize that the top tier group they thought was so awesome maybe isn't and that they weren't suited for it at all. Along the same lines, do not invite women who were rude or disinterested at your parties. You deserve far better.
