I appologize in advance if this comes off as rude. It just sounds like your chapter needs to get their priorities straightened out. While I was in school, my chapter had some problems with getting numbers during recruitment. It wasn't until the chapter really got it's priorities straight and started scheduling mandatory chapter meetings during breaks (all holidays and fall break - our rush is deferred in october) that we started to see some real results. And I too agree that the best form of advertising is wearing your letters EVERYDAY - even if it's just your lavalier or pin. We had a schedule of what to wear 1st semester, as cheesy as it sounds, it worked - it also helped because you didn't have to waste time in the morning figuring out what you were going to wear that day. Another really good idea is to plan to eat all of your meals together - again, I know this is cheesy but it works. I know at stetson, all the greeks sat in certain sections. What we would do is whoever could get to the CUB (it's what we call our cafeteria) first would put balloons on our table - kinda marking our teritory. We would also make sure, in advance, to plan to have at least 1 or 2 sisters in there during the lunch period. We would also invite PNM to sit and eat with us. Whatever your chapter decides to do, I wish you the best of luck.
