I agree that values based activity is very buzz wordy. I'm not sure what it means at all. Back in the day first night of rush was chit chat not activities.

Do you have some general descriptions of what your chapter, and others on campus, have done over the years?

eta:

How is your alumnae support? Do you have chapter advisors that are from your own chapter or experienced themselves with the struggles of being the smaller group on campus? Are your alumnae and advisors supportive? Are any National officers or advisors appointed to work more closely with your chapter?

Are you in a leadership role yourself? I'm assuming your VP Membership but I could be wrong.

My own chapter was significantly smaller during formal rush in the fall. We had to double rush a handful of girls each round. It sounds like you'll be expecting all members to triple rush every round. Conversation workshops become critical. Trying to get to know the girls without any single one dominating the conversation is very tricky.


Do you know if your NHQ is expecting half quota from formal or by the end of the fall? I know it's not impossible to double/triple a chapter in one shot during formal but the chapter may be more comfortable picking up more girls during COB/informal recruitment. Anything that allows a more natural "get to know you" phase can help smaller groups.
