Personally here in NOva Scotia, all of us have really low numbers for Spring rush and pledge. I mean in our sorority we had only two go through and some of the fraternities had none. Some of our ideas: invite friends to rush events. We had two girls last semester come out to chill with their friends, and they ended up being sisters!
One year we made a video on sororities and Iota Beta Chi. Then we made posters and phamplets and called the local high schools. During lunch we set up a tv and vcr, played the tape for all grade 12 girls who came and handed out phamplets, then had some summer rush events!
During the week before schoool begins, it is Frosh week here. And while all the residence students are being hazed, all the ones who will live off campus are basically just touring the groounds, so we plan to set up a table and talk with anyone who has questions. That way we are a week ahead of everyone else!
Good luck!
