Ghostwriter speaks the truth. Take his advice with a grain of salt though, and remember that not all campuses are the same.

Remember though. There is the one really basic recruitment tool that I think is absolutely brilliant and under-utilized

The 5 Step NIC Recruitment Model
1. Meet them
2. Become their friend
3. Introduce them to your friends
4. Introduce them to the Fraternity concept
5. Ask them to join

It really is THAT simple. A lot of people think they can convince people to join in one day. It's not that easy, if it were, we would all have 100 men chapters.

Take some time to stop "recruiting" and start meeting people. Think of all of the people you have in now, and think of why they joined. A lot of your best members I'm sure joined because they wanted friendship

Don't even talk to them about joining until you can consider them your friend and you have introduced them to several of your friends. Take this message and spread it to everyone in your chapter. Motivate all of them to try this model on 5 new guys from the incoming freshman class, and I guarantee you most, if not all, will end up joining
