Thank you all who posted about this topic. It helped me get some ideas for my sorority even though they told us to stop recruitment.

Their chapter's been resolved already, if I'm not mistaken.

Please. The Bowling Green chapter is a great chapter. Don't recruit. Don't do anything to mess up the chances of the chapter being recolonized the future. I'm really sorry you're being resolved, I know a lot of sisters have really been sad about it.

Don't worry i'm not going to mess it up. they told us to stop so i'm not going to. The ideas will just help us in the future when it comes time to reappear as a chapter.

Could you maybe have two pledge classes in one semester? We're trying that for the first time.

That would NOT be possible.

Well at my university even some Nationals are doing it, and we for the first time did it this semester with some success. It's not something we have made permanent at the moment, but it might be something to consider.

I've never heard of anything like this and can't figure out the mechanics. Do you recruit and start a pledge class, then recruit a 2nd time and start a completely separate pledge class? How is this different from COB recruitment, where you may pick up new members at various times during the semester and plop them into the same pledge class pool?

Well basically we just had one initiation, and we're planning on having another initiation before finals. They will be two separate pledge classes.
