I agree..Exec and Committees should be separately to take care of business and use the rest of the event time for fun things.
I would suggest planning one event a month for the chapter (or less if that's too much) and really try to concentrate on events that are big draws for most women. Mix it up with philanthropy events and if there are problems with the collegiate chapter, limit your events with them to 1 or 2 a year, like Founder's Day and another event.
Things that are good:
Lunch &Learn with a speaker
Craft oriented event (pottery painting, scrapbooking)
Cooking demonstration
Investment/retirement planning
Women's health & safety issues
