as sad as it may seem, i totally understand what alphasiglana is saying. that was how my sorority was branded on my campus. a lot of the girls in my chapter felt the exact same way. some of them did chose to leave, but that just made the numbers issue that much worse. we were called the sigma kows point blank by other members of the greek system. so i totally understand where you're coming from. having a couple of make over nights or whatever isn't going to do it. in my case we basically ended up being the outcasts and were eventually pushed off campus.
as for the whole new members thing, i agree with pbear. my own little said the same thing, that if we make our new members feel like they are just numbers and not really sisters then we have completely defeated out purpose of being a sisterhood.
regardless of how you feel about the new members looks or whatever, you need to make them feel welcome and wanted. otherwise you will have even more of a numbers problem on your hands when they chose to leave.
