I think it is a good way to get quality folk in the fraternity - - - especially at the grad chapter. I asked a guy that i know who is a ph.d candidate. he said that he always wanted to be a member in undergrad but did not have the resources to do much but go to school. he was pleased that i asked him and he will now be on our spring line.
i also find that many people are unaware of the process and only know of misinformation which deter them from inquiring.

Not down with the recruiting.
If someone wants it bad enough they will make the neccessary and persistent inquiry. After that, it's up to the brotherhood to determine if they are possessed of the intrinsic qualities which separate ordinary men from the ranks of Alphas.
There are already enough t-shirt wearers.

I don't see how you make a corellation between T-shirt wearers and presenting Alpha to people that don't know about it. And the comment on "if they want it bad enough" assumes that they are already interested.

I think in some ways we all recruit--just not blatantly like setting up a table in the quad and soliciting people to come over and hear our spiel. If I meet a lady of quality and she is not Greek, I often ask here if she ever considered it. Depending on her answer I may tell her more about Delta and ask if I could put her on our list of invitees to our next RUSH, although it may be years away.
But I see this happening more on the alumnae level than the collegiate level.

I will normally let her know why I chose Delta then tell her about our activities in the community, usually the next public event, and our national or chapter website then its up to her. If she wants to find out more, ie RUSH, then she has to take the next steps.
