From being a founding father... this is what I can give you... and i hope it is helpful. Like many have said, I would seek help from your alumni's and national HQ. Maybe your small chapter needs a house cleaning, from what I've heard... i have the exact same passion for my house, and honestly we all should. Also you metioned 5 other guys... utilize them. Have you guys already rushed all of your friends? I stress the importance in informal rush. Maybe you six should start a new wave, a wave of passion for the letters you wear on your chest. You rushed 7 guys this past semester. SO hopefully u have the original 6 plus the new 7 which gives you 13. I know you have a lot of positions but maybe you guys should focus on the major things. Have someone who bleeds your letters be the new member educator, so you have new brothers who share the same passion. Have the e board set the example, and lead by actions. Sounds like you have a few guys who don’t care anymore... maybe they should be deactived or alumnied early. Get them out of the house before they infect the other brothers. Being a small chapter, means everyone person is vital and important. To become strong, it takes strong leadership from the top all the way down. One word of advice that I strongly give you, and if your only willing to listen to one thing from me then this is what I suggest... DONT DO IT ALLOW! You’ll get burned out... trust in the alumni, HQ and the brothers that care.
Good luck....
James
