We went through a period where we had COR twice a week, every week. It paid off, but it really took a toll on our morale and made us all kinda grumpy and tired. So I guess my point is to do recruitment events, but don't totally forget about the little fun things like sisterhoods and socials that help take the stress off of the chapter a little.
Also- while freshmen are great, don't overlook upperclassmen. Some of our best sisters joined the chapter as juniors.

I agree. Maybe set the first two weeks of the semester as COR. Go ahead and put pledging on the calendar. After that-just have fun! I agree-COR every week for a whole semester is going to kill you. This is supposed to be fun! I also agree with wearing letters constantly-but make sure you are wearing them so you look nice. Do not overlook women because YOU think they wouldn't be interested. You can never tell someone else what they would be interested in. Some people are just shy and would never approach you (I was one of those people). But if you approach them, they are so gung-ho!
