Re: How did you turn your chapter around?

Yes, I was there!!!!!

My chapter only had 6 or 7 actives until this spring. We now have about 20.

ENTHUSIASM counts more than just about anything. If you love your sorority, and you talk it up and how great it is, others will take notice. The girls we initiated this spring told us that the main thing that attracted them to SAI was that they could tell how close we were and how much we love our org.

Talk up your sorority. I know our rush is so different from NPC, but maybe I can still give some advice. Do you COB? If you do...have you and all your sisters talk up your group to everyone! Encourage everyone to invite one girl.

Do service projects on campus or in the community that are very visable. People WILL take notice. GIrls look to join an active group, and if they see some of hte stuff you do, they may take interest.

I hope some of this helps. It worked for us. Reply or PM if you want to discuss this more!
