hey y'all, this is a call for help.
I'm the Recruitment Chairman for the Acacia colony at LA Tech. We were just approved by the IFC in December, so we've never put ourselves "out there" on campus before. All our recruiting up to this point has been friends talking to friends.
We're going to send out a mass e-mail, which will go to all students. (The school doesn't give us the option of sending just to men, or just to undergrads- it's everyone or no one.) For probably 90% of the people who receive this message, it will be the first time they've heard of us, so it's important that we not sound like idiots. It's also important that the message sound OK to everyone- men and women, Greeks and not.
This is my first draft. Keep in mind that this e-mail is just part of a much larger recruitment plan. Please comment- be brutal, if you must. This needs to be good.
"Acacia (the fraternity with the weird name) will be recruiting new members January 9-17. Acacia (uh-kay-shuh) is an international social fraternity. Membership is open to all male students, undergrad and graduate, regardless of major.
