Have you been open bidding and having pledge classes outside formal rush? Did your HQ give you assistance with that? Did your chapter charter at campus total?

"Values based" is a silly buzzword. Don't worry about a theme. Just talk to the rushees and try to make as many connections as possible. Avoid one on one conversation and keep it group focused.

If your campus is not using RFM correctly (and with the disparity in chapter sizes it doesn't sound like they are) you need to contact your NPC area advisor. Also, if the majority of groups are not at campus total after formal rush, total needs to be reevaluated.

ETA: In your case, bid day is not the END of rush. Bid day is a little before the middle. Have plans in place for an open bid party as soon after bid day as possible. Then have another one a week and a half later. If it's at all possible and Panhellenic allows it, have them in a member's house or apartment rather than a classroom or wherever you had to hold formal rush activities.
