I think everyone's suggestions so far are great. However, I am going to try to give you a slightly simpler route. THere is a fraternity on my campus that is in the SAME EXACT position Delta Sig is in on your campus. However, as far as I know, the guys here don't want to change their status. That said, I'd like to congratulate you on at least seeing there is a problem and being willing to "fix" it. I can understand you're problem with seeing HQ and your alumni about the situation, because some of your brothers may point fingers at you. However, new members are the future to your chapter, and getting guys who are willing to be die hard brothers will be your greatest asset. Usually, fraternities have a few girls that hang out with the guys on a regular basis. If you have a sweetheart, maybe you could enlist her help and any other (trustworthy) girls in finding guys that would be beneficial to the chapter. I know that here a lot of fraternities use the help of girls to recruit. And like someone else said, definately do some informal recruiting. Sometimes formal recruitment just catches the guys that want to join a fraternity for the parties, and informal cuts down on that just a little. In any case, your position is a tough one and I wish you and your chapter all the luck in the world!
