That's fantastic news! Congrats yet again and I'm happy to see that you & your sisters are making every effort to make your new members feel welcome and wanted. It's crucial to give them the best new member period ever so that your sisterhood remains strong and they have nothing but great memories of it.

Update!
This morning we Initiated 34 wonderful new sisters. Two more will be Initiated soon (they had conflicts with the ceremony). We did lose two new members before Initiation, but it was due to personal/financial issues that had nothing to do with their new member experience or our sisterhood. It's been an amazing semester and we're so happy to have so many new Venuses!

Coming this Fall: COB!
We just finished up a great year and are leaving for the summer as a very happy (and big!) chapter. Since we're still under chapter total by about 10, the decision was made to go ahead with COB this fall. We will be the only chapter COBing and will probably be taking around 10 women. We already have some great prospects on the horizon, and a good number of our new sisters have friends who are interested. In the words of "I Heart Recruitment", quantity = quality! In other words, the more interested women we have, the better quality women we can bid (because there are more to choose from!). Anyway, it's very exciting for us and I'll definitely post our COB story.
We're also gearing up for a great Formal Recruitment in January 2010! Isn't it crazy (in a good way!) that sisters are already planning themes and t-shirts? The whole format of the rounds was just revised by our Panhel, so it'll be an interesting year. But that's a long way off...

Yes, we will only be able to COB sophomores and up. Freshmen cannot do any kind of recruitment until their second semester, when FR takes place.
