this is something we really had issues with here at LAmbda Chapter at UC Davis, but after our national visit stuff got a whole lot better. we have really tried to put everythign with committees. we made a kinda silent rule that exec committe was not to sign up for anything else since we are already involved then we made a list of who else was already on committees and when we ask for volunteers or a committee we check our list and put those on it that are never or seldom involved. this has really worked to help I think because everyone puts in their little part. it did take some work not to shoot your hand up right away at a meeting but to let other peeople get the chance and really not fill committees until you get new un involved members on the committeees really makes people more involved because it is now thier project and not just a meeting they attend. so you might try that. if I have totally confused me I will explain it better another time. hope this helps.
