Mixer to fix our rep.

Yeah - No NPC org is allowed to host or co-sponsor an open bar event so just pretend that you didn't event think of that idea. Even if you start having typical partying events then you will just be the "dorky" sorority that drinks not the cool one. Sorry to be harsh. I understand that you feel locked into events with alcohol but trust me when I say they won't help.

Why don't you talk to Panhellenic about encouraging dinner mixers. One of the schools I advise is starting Panhellenic pot lucks between two chapters after the chapter meeting.

They are also sponsoring all Greek Service Days where you are spit up and participate in service events with women and men from groups other than your own. You could even try a joint philanthropy with one of the other sororities or fraternities.

Also, take a look at the women that you are attracting. If you are under total COB is a great way to attract wonderful women that did not want to go through the formal process but are already leaders on campus. Attracting these type of women during COB can help your image.

Good luck!
