For us it is kind of difficult because a lot of the schools will not allow you top post fliers on their campuses and even the schools that some of our sisters attend make it difficult to recruit because they won't allow you to wear your paraphernalia on campus unless you are registered. In order to get registered on one campus they said that we would be required ot purchase a $500,000 insurance plan. I would like to know how other organizations such as ours deal with this.

My group is new too and we are planning to recruit members in a few ways.
1) get a website and a chapter email
2) Get your name out into the community. Register with your city as an organization with the "welcome office" or whatever.
3) Put an ad in the paper announcing yourself! List your philanthropy and other projects. Always include "Those interested in joining can contact 555-1234 or
www.seeus.com for more info"
4) Have socials. Try a Mexican and Margarita or Luou night and have each member bring a friend or two.
5) Have a Tea Party. I know it sounds silly and old fashined, but ladies love getting dressed up and doing this!
6) hold a fundraiser and wear your letters.
7) Have a girls night out and wear letters. Use it as an opportunity to talk to tother women you see out.
8) Talk to the near by schools and see about putting an ad in the school newspaper. Often there are no restrictions to it being just for students. Other businesses asvertise in there-why not you!
Good Luck!
