Stan, I don't think this is going to help much, but anyway,
In the time I've lurked/posted here, two things have been apparent to me:
1) Your house has struggled for awhile (which has NOTHING to do with quality, necessarily)
and
2) You love being a Delta Sig. Really though.
There comes a time when you can't do enough. When your house is in a position where things may not get any better or worse, you'll just flounder "in between". I'm not trying to be negative, I'm just telling you I've been there and it would kill me if I knew you walked away thinking your contributions were minimal. Hell, we don't even really know you and we can tell you're a kick ass brother in your house. So please promise us that whenever you do graduate, you'll do it knowing you gave Delt Sig your all.
Another thing I've come to realize is that graduation is not the be all and end all of Greek life. Just look at the board! I'm not sure how popular alumni groups are with guys or Delt Sig, for all I know they could be really GHEY, but with sororities sometimes its better than the college years (from what I've heard.) You know a lot about IFC, you know tons about DSig (the name keeps getting shorter as I post, lol) so how do you know that you won't be an advisor or something once you graduate?? And you might love that even more.
All the suggestions you've received have been great- the purpose of my post was just to keep you from beating yourself up. Props to you for being realistic about the situation and being passionate about something important to you.
And lastly, don't forget- Greek life is crazy. Some reps take YEARS to get over, and some things change overnight. If you absolutely kill in philanthropies, or something else competitive for an entire semester and recruit recruit recruit, you could see results as soon as this April.
