Our chapter has similar problems. Every year a few sisters disaffiliate (or go alum when they really don't have to). An example of this problem: I was MRC Fall 1999 and spring 2000. Chapter started with 6 girls, through the year we initiated 7! doubled our size! By fall 2000 only 3 from those classes remained....seemed to make my efforts worthless(almost).
I don't know how to fix the situation. I think maybe if we had one or two sisterhood events during the summer we may feel more connected. That is a problem too here: sisterhood. Some sisters never get invited out because others assume they are too busy like they are during the school year.
I could use advice too. This is one of the greatest strains on my chapter since we are small.
