Okay, how horrible do you think this idea is: have each active in your chapter "rank" all the chapters at the school from the best to the worst on secret ballots, and see where, on average, your own chapter stands (as far as how your chapter percieves itself)? It was just an idea I came up with, but I'm not sure if it would help or hurt the morale, if say your chapter ranked itself 5 out of 10. I think that if you had a very inspirational, motivational officer, that person could turn the whole thing into a learning experience, and try to change the attitudes of actives to a "we are the best!" attitude pre-recruitment. I guess it could go the other way- no one ever really wants to hear where you "rank" unless it's #1!

That probably wouldn't be such a good idea. I think it would hurt the morale of smaller chapters. Also, it depends on how you define "best". The chapter where I fit the best? The highest achieving chapter that wins tons of awards? The chapter with the prettiest girls? I think the answer to "best" in each of those categories woulc be very different in one's ranking of "best" chapters.
