We have some problems with new members wanting out during the process of becoming sisters. Since we are a small chapter, most of us keep close. My sapphire sister and I are best friends (we were best friends before we joined and she joined before me). We recently made a trip to go visit the sisters who are living at the house for the summer. Everyone has their own close friends that they keep in contact more than others within the sorority, We do all keep i major contact through Instant Messenging. I think events over the summer would help. Sometimes people feel left out of the sorority espcially when everyone has someone they are close to and these people who consider or go through dis affliation don't. I think thats the reason most of them leave because they don't feel that they have anyone to connect to. Maybe if even a few or just one sister connected with them or showed interest, they would stay. Plus, to be honest, some of them might have joined for fun and parties and then when school started realized how much work it would take or something else came up that was more important to them. I think my chapters biggest problem is the fact that some of our sapphire sisters do not get along to the extreme that some of them are practically enemies. If anyone has any ideas on how to avoid this problem let me know.
