When to do rush

[SigmaPezY60]

If there are a lot of locals on your campus, do you have a council for them? You could organize a formal recruitment for the locals on your campus similar to the NPC recruitment process.

My chapter is one of the 3 largest sororities on campus, along with the 2 NPC sororities. NJIT doesn't have a traditional formal rush process and all GLO's have recruitment at the same time. We all take around the same number of new members each semester.

I do agree that you should try to recruit along with the Panhellenic. It's only difficult to compete if you allow it to be difficult. If you don't get as many new members you can always do COB the week after.
