I attended a university (also in Ohio) that was, at that time, mainly commuter. Less than 10% of students lived on-campus (that has since changed) so I can empathize with your challenges. If the campus newspaper doesn't print positive things about GLOs, get some Greeks on staff. Put in ads... they won't turn down your money. Most of all, target those ads to reflect the positive message that you want conveyed (like congratuating all the 3.5+ GPA members or announcing results of a major philanthropy event). Try going 'outside' your circle for social events.... nothing against the fraternities, but have you ever thought about having a party with the men's lacrosse team? It may not help you directly but it might help that struggling fraternity across the street who then might reciprocate.

And if I'm understanding you correctly, some of the groups on your campus require a minimum GPA of 3.0- 3.2 (HS or college) and that is not per local bylaws but is set by their headquarters?
