Geekypenguin, IH provides a good sized booklet on different PACE ideas, everything from alchohol awareness to time management to learning how to know if you have an STD. There's all sorts of stuff in that book, but if you don't have it, contact IH.
To everyone else, some ideas for your chapters on educational "Greek-101" type programming could be self-defense (hire an instructor or check out your campus' recreation center), teaching the members how to manage their time, or bringing in a campus or community police officer to talk about local, state, and national laws about drug and alcohol abuse (we did that and it was really eye-opening). Something that my chapter has done before is taking a walk together on campus during meeting time (at night) and identifying the areas that are unsafe for walking alone or in small groups at night. We brought the campus safety escort service into this one and they helped out. We've also brought in a top-level company executive who taught us how to write brilliant resumes and give worthy interviews. It was really helpful, too. The ideas are endless and most people on campus and in the community will probably be willing to help with something to educate the members.
