I believe the use of "new tradition"
is an oxymoron.
That being said, I would get the history of Pi Kappa Alpha, read it along with old copies of your fraternity's publication and search for old things that could be made new again.
It is my opinion that one of the things that is appealing to many (not all) of PNM's is the traditions of the fraternity/sorority. It's history is often the foundation that today's chapter is built on, its current membership is the cement that binds the present with the past.
Look for meaningful ways that your chapter could give back to the college or community...be mindful that for a tradition to build out of something new requires a wholesale buy-in by the current membership that would be picked up by the new members you are pledging today.
