Ok. To all you COBer's out there, what kind of events or tactics do you use to COB? We've been doing that for 5 years, and we never get more than 5 girls a semester, sometimes just one or two. We have many girls attend, and many are interested, but they just never give in.
Our campus is a suitcase campus, and many girls that come here REALLY don't care about the sororities, except for the 200-250 that go through Recruitment plus maybe (what we know of at least--our barrel of fish if you will) 15-30 more girls that express the slightest interest but don't go through formal recruitment. Out of those 200-250, we place about 150 girls, b/c financial requirements and time requirements turn alot of girls off (rural, suitcase school, I reiterate).
So there is some knack that we are not getting. This year, we are not going to cob all semester, like usual. We are going to COB the first few weeks after Bid Day, and then just focus on our pledges, so they don't feel like their not good enough. Then if someone during the rest of the semester approaches us, then, fine, but we aren't going to go on the prowl all semester. This is what some of our National officers suggested, so we figured, why not?
