To add to what a previous poster said above, do work on your social networking and I don't mean online social networking sites. Get out there and meet people. If you have a chapter house, do dinner exchanges with fraternities and other sororities. When we did them we would send 8 members of our chapter over to the other chapter and they would send 8 to ours. Send your most outgoing members to the other chapter because they do not have others to rely on for conversation. Usually the 8 guests were split up among all of the tables. The sisters remaining at home to hostess can rely on each other to support and carry the conversation with the one guest. The fraternity men can see that your chapter is full of nice, intelligent young ladies. Believe me, they will tell others. It doesn't cost anything because you are just swapping numbers. If you don't have chapter houses, you have to be a little more creative. You can reserve an on campus room and have a study break for an hour or so, with snacks or meet up at a local restaurant for a group dinner date. I think your best bet is to just get out there and show the campus what you're really like. Start having days where the chapter wears letters while looking their best and use part of your budget to reward sisters for doing this. One of the chapters I advised did a token reward system like this. Sisters put names in the box when they saw a sister perform a random act of kindness, attend another chapter's philanthropy event, wear letters or badge looking especially nice, etc. At the end of the semester, they drew names out of the box for prizes like lettered tees, a hoodie, and the big prize each semester was free chapter dues for the following semester. (The advisers got together with the alumnae sponsored this prize.)
