And again... hopefully this move-in weekend and the activities planned will help immensely.

The one problem though is getting the fraternities involved in things. We have 3 fraternities right now, and one of them does not want to participate in anything that involves the Greek community as a whole (they don't even participate in Greek Week anymore). Another one is attempting to rebuild right now, after they essentially were non-existent for a year (whether they'll really step up and try to be involved is unknown).

People always suggest using the fraternities to help us out. But that's difficult when all 3 sororities kind of turn to one of them for help.

Also, question... do you think we'd kind of be seen as... "interfering" with orientation if we randomly help freshman to move in?

Are you allowed to hold events with the regular student organizations (like clubs that your sisters are involved in or have friends in)? Maybe iceskating with the ski club or barbecue with the biology club or game night with the residence hall association (possibly holding the game night in a lounge of a dorm with lots of first-year women). You'd be doing an event with another group so it's more people and more lively. Plus there are gonna be females in these clubs so maybe they'll think "hey this sorority looks like fun, maybe I want to join too". And it will get your name out beyond just the Greek Life circle.
