It's so interesting to "see" how things have changed on your campus in such a short time. So a year ago you were at, what, 9 girls, and now you're at 25 and you're going to have to limit new members due to meeting campus total? It does sound like it's time for some sort of formal recruitment, and you definitely don't want your recruitment chair to be on panhel. Now that you have the members to work with, get someone else to do it. More exposure and less pressure on one girl!
When this recruitment is over, is the plan to gather the 3 sororities and make a procedure for spring/next year? There are SOOOO many different ways to recruit (I'd have never guessed before spending time on GC), that I bet you can find the best of the best from here. Kudos to the Greek Advisor. I'm assuming she/he must have a strong role in this new interest in Greek life on campus. Besides, success begets success. Do you have any sister chapters in nearby and fairly similar campus size/style to visit and brainstorm with?
The next stage of your saga is going to be really interesting because here's where you make a jump to 50 and 60 members, and then is a house or a dorm floor far behind? The possibilities are very exciting. Do I jump too many steps ahead? That's me. I can never just be happy for what I have right now.
