And make that your recruitment motto. Find girls that want to be the part of a building process. Ones that want to start a new sorority. Being on an anti greek campus makes it even harder. Just keep your head high.
Luau nights can be really fun. The cheesier the better. We went roller skating one year. My great grand sis is part of recruitment this semster. SHe came up with a "banana night." Bring your own banana. I am guessing they are making banana splits cuz we usually have an ice cream social. But I have no idea.

The only thing that I am concerned with is not recruting enough Sisters to make this group active. Last sememester when we tried recruiting, we had eight Sisters. Most of those Sisters dropped out. Either they couldn't make a time committment, or they cut themselves out because of their attendance (in our group your allowed to miss three events- events being meetings, recruitment gatherings, our own events... and there are seperate point values for each category)
Movie nights would be the easiest. Even if it was a themed movie night.... like "3 Movies that define our Sisterhood as a whole" or something to that effect. Everyone loves food... and when people see food, they go.
Getting the word out there is the hardest. I can make little flyers and stick them onto people's cars (if that is allowed) or do something creative. The VP and I thought of making shirts for the Sisters. We just need creative PR ways of marketing. We got in touch with one of the professors who teaches marketing classes and he knows of 10 PNM's. People are really pulling out for us... and I don't want to let them down-
As far as choosing girls etc.. were not allowed to be picky with who we choose and who we don't. We have to give bids to everyone because it's a club it has to be open to everyone (both male and female, eventhough it's geared towards women).
