You can throw money at a chapter, resources at a chapter, alumni help and AO resources...etc. If you have a chapter that is apathetic, lazy or just plain old bad, no help will get them to recruit better. It starts from within. The chapter MUST want to recruit, and nobody but THEMSELVES can recruit for them. My chapter is a perfect example of this.

True. However, there can exist, at times, situations where a Chapter is honestly trying yet not succeeding.
It is these chapter that need to be identified and helped.

this is too true. A lot of times it is the campus that is lazy and apathetic. A lot of campuses are dominately GDI, and changing that doesnt happen over night. However, I will say that there isnt much the AO can do, when the AO come to help with our recruitment, we just end up re-explaining everything, and it all ends up redundant.

Personally, I don't agree with the GDI excuse.
Maybe 15% of my chapter ever actually came to college and wanted to join a fraternity. Quite a few guys outright hated fraternities before they even know what one was or who we were.
It takes a lot of work and experience to know how to rush guys like that, but in the end most of them are more likely to be good brothers than guys that had to join a fraternity.

Epsilon Alpha is going to end up with 4-6 pledges for Spring '07. That's the average for our school.
