Heather" Then, "How about this weekend? Do you still have those tight jeans? Dave" Then, "Dave, you were late - you owe me more than a "jeans date" Heather" etc, etc. After two weeks, they started slipping in their letters, but by then, the entire campus was hooked! It worked out better than buying a full page ad!

That is such a cute idea. Genius!

Join the campus Panhellenic. Follow their rules, and their calendar. Hold recruitment with the other sororities. You will become more a part of the existing Greek System.

Get Yourself Noticed
Be visable. Get involved in student organizations. Wear your pins & sweatshirts. Be nice to GDI's, because the other sororities don't. They are your best source of new members.

Like some other people said, wear your letters. One of our chapter traditions is a red hooded sweatshirt with our letters in white, and they're really warm. A couple years back, we started doing "letters day" on Monday's (the day that we have our meetings in the HUB). Most of the girls wear their red hoodies. We started getting noticed around campus, particularly by our fellow Greeks...things like "I just saw a whole bunch of your sisters and they were all in red hoodies." or "Man, I see you girls EVERYWHERE in your red hoodies."
One thing that I've seen other chapters do is sending out cards (like "Welcome Back" at the beginning of fall semester or "Happy Holidays") to all the other chapters. I always thought that was really sweet.

We're associate members of our campus Panhellenic. But, they wouldn't allow us to participate in their formal recruitment, until recently. We were asked to participate in Fall 2007, but the President decided to wait and participate in Fall 2008 b/c we don't have the money to have a nice recruitment like the national sororities on our campus, and we also are unsure of what we'd need to do to have a similar formal recruitment to the other sororities. They allowed us to shadow recruitment this Fall, and I imagine we'll shadow again next Fall. I wish we were going ahead and participating next Fall and not waiting a year, but I wasn't in a position to voice my opinion.
Thank-you, everyone, for your suggestions. I plan on suggesting these ideas at our 1st meeting in January. Any other ideas are welcomed.
