COB in an unhoused chapter can be easy, if planned well and a weekly schedule is made early in the semester. I would make sure that you plan events that are affordable for both members and PNMs. Suggestions include: Sisterhood event at a local coffee shop, going to a campus athletic event together, bowling, going to get ice cream, board night a a member's apartment/house -- usually any normal sisterhood event can be turned into a COB event.

Good luck!

These are all good ideas but what may work for your chapter (it has worked well for ours) is simply meeting up with PNMs for "dates", i.e. 2-3 sisters meeting with 1-2 PNMs for lunch or coffee and just having a conversation. For PNMs that are unsure about Greek life, this could be a good option for them. As Phired Up states, "people don't join organizations, they join people". Therefore if they find that they can get along well with a few people from the chapter, they may be much more willing to give your group a try. As I said, it's worked for us. Best of luck!
