I know how strange it can be when your friends graduate and suddenly the chapter doesn't feel the same as it did before.

I'd advise you to move into your chapter house if you have one--that is a wonderful way to get to know sisters you might not know as well (we had 32 girls and two decent sized bathrooms, but in these situtations you get to know your sisters!!).

I loved living in our chapter house. It was so much fun and most of the friendships I have to this day were cemented during those years in the house.

If that is not an option, run for an office, or volunteer to head a committee. Both are great ways to get involved and make new friends. We had a large chapter, so very often you'd get to know a whole different group of people that you might not have otherwise.

You could talk to your chapter president or social director about organizing sisterhood events--offer to be in charge or help out if a committee already exists. The possibilities are limitless!

Finally, you could take on a little sis (or whatever your group calls them). This might help you to bridge the gap between the younger girls and yourself.

Good luck! :-)
