This semester, the girls are replacing a few of their "typical" recruitment parties with everyday activities. They set it up so that on certain nights, a few girls will go to the movie on campus, a few others will attend a basketball game, and a few others will eat in the cafe on campus. They're inviting PNMs to those events, hoping to attract more girls. So hopefully that will help.

As I've said, Panhellenic is slowly making an effort to work together. But there's definitely still room for improvement. Would you suggest that when an opportunity arises to advertise together, they should? For example, at Club Rush each year, the sororities each have their own tables, attempting to get names in order to send out info concerning recruitment events for each individual chapter. Would you instead suggest combining efforts (maybe just having a Panhellenic table) to have them sign up for one listserv for Panhellenic, informing them of all the recruitment events?

And yes, Panhellenic makes sure that no two sororities are having recruitment events at the same time. Each chapter has to submit their recruitment schedule the prior semester so that any date/time conflicts can be worked out.

YES. There should also be a kickoff event where they have to visit every sorority.
