At michigan state, im not sure about the guys side of it, but i do know our numbers for formal womens recruiment were up slightly. However, a still very small perecentage of our campus is greek compared to other big ten schools our numbers are really small. I remember talking to my best friend who goes to a small school in wisconsin, and us talking about how much larger my hosue was and how it was wierd, however i pointed out to her that probably a much larger percentage of her tiny campus is greek than my large college. Also, Our greek system is shrinking a lot, weve lost three sororites since ive been in college (two of which i knew personally to be really great houses). We also keep losing hosuess for a semester or a year at a time due to houses getting in trouble. Overall i think there is a bad image associated with greeks around the naiton. i realy think we should do something. As a former PR chair for an eboard its not that hard to further your image on a campus. I know at state our panhel has done a really great job recruiting girls for formal rush, setting up tables around campus in the big lecture halls with girls posted there to answer questions. I do think a lot of it needs to be done on a national level tho. I wondre if it would be possible for people from our nationals to form a committie to create perhaps a pr campaign!
