Also - I know the house issue seems overriding, but don't let it become the focus of your efforts to the detriment of your sisterhood. The chapter is not the house. Don't bite off more than you can chew - consider taking blocks of apartments in a complex to have a home base. That way you won't have to worry about filling a house. (This doesn't help sisterhood either.)

Have a new house when your chapter is ready. From your posts, this is the LAST thing you should be worrying about, especially at your type of school.

Unrelated to this particular post P.S.: Until your school brings back some fraternities, sorority numbers are going to suffer. It would be nice if that wasn't the case, but the fact is it does play a large part.
