I am sorry, I meant have the Beta Seniors ask the Freshman why. For me it was because I did not find a "house" I liked. I withdrew before bids were handed out.

If this recurring theme of preconceived notions keeps coming back, take the time to explain that this is happening all over the Greek community and a almost every campus that has a Greek system.

Then ask if they will step back and reevaluate their position and for those that you would like to have in your chapter, ask them to reconsider.

If a chapter makes a more personal approach to potential members, they might have more success. Awkward at first, but it can work.
