Our fraternities get extremely discouraged to participate in any event if they do not get teamed up with a sorority and it makes our Greek community look sad in front of the school when the school is now finally giving more support to us since we have not had any real major incident since 2004.

As VP said - pair multiple fraternities with a sorority. The girls will be a hell of a lot happier, trust me. If the fraternities are that much smaller, it won't be a sausage fest. Also, if the sororities are picking the same fraternities all the time, the other guys need to either step up their game or say "screw it" and go watch a Monty Python marathon.
CFF - the Panhel needs to get in touch with their area advisor ASAP to fix the total issues, etc. Does the Greek advisor know what he/she is doing or are they part of the problem?
Is there any way the Greek houses could be duplexed (for lack of a better word) until the new housing gets built? It definitely sounds like that is a big part of the problem.
This is all sadly familiar.

I just looked at irishpipes' rush thread. Of the cited 5 sorority chapters that have closed, 2 were only open for a minute in the 1970s (many chapters at many schools were only open for a minute in the 1970s) and the other was open for 2 minutes in the 1980s, and I'm guessing was chartered as a sorority appealing to a certain group. Within the past 15 years, they've lost 2 chapters, which really isn't anything outside the norm IMO.
