The only thing I can think of, off the top of my head, is recruit good quality guys. Don't throw off campus keggers to "get around" dry rush.

After a few years of rushing the quality guys, your numbers will be up, grades will be up and then people will be knocking on your door to join.

Also, get sororities involved with your rush. That always works. The best impression on a freshman 4.0 football player, is when the Alpha Phi's say, "You should be a Beta".

Lastly, I came from a chapter that was just a colony when I joined. I kick myself everytime I think about keeping a documented history of our chapter. We have no bound minutes, a bunch of half-a$$ed picture books, a few old copied petitions laying around...etc. 50 years from now, we won't have our founding information. Make sure you guys keep good documentation of what you do, because in the years to come, you may want to look back at it.

PS, get me your e-mail address (you can PM it to me via greekchat.com - this website). I have a guy I want to talk with you. He is a founder of our chapter and is out at Ft. Bragg, and I am sure he'd make a trip to your place to talk Beta. He's the shit.

-kai bro, good luck.
