I know on my campus we have problems getting women to sign up for recruitment, mainly because many of the people that go to our school are first in their families to go to college....IN turn many of them know little to nothing about greek life. In addition to that, the other two state schools have much larger greek life systems, so people do not come to NAU looking for greek life. The big things we try to do to get women to sign up are: Booths at Orientation weekends, Greek Life as a whole puts on an info session during the Orientation weekends also, Flyers about greek life are in all the information that new students get at Orientation, and to try to get returning students to go through formal recruitment we also have done flyers to the on campus residents and lowered the registration price for returning students. The big thing that makes it difficult in some ways for our campus to get women to go through recruitment is the fact that we do it the week before classes start.
Ok...I think I blathered about this too much.
