I agree that you need to go invite only. I realize that you have a small campus, (I used to advise a chapter there) but clearly your current method of publicizing the event isn't working. Perhaps invite only the PNMs that you actually want there would yield results. I belonged to a struggling chapter in college, our COB events were always invitation only events - whether it was phone call or actual invitiation.

Agreed. Or you could do one open party and make the rest invite-only. We did that also.

Invite only might work better than making them open parties. Invite only implies that you're "exclusive". Just invite a ton of girls. THEY don't have to know you invited a lot of girls, but if they know it's invite only, they'll feel special. It might help.
