Super cute! I'm actually planning on making these for presents next year, my bf's mom has one of those awesome embroidery machines and is teaching me how to sew/embroider. I love it!

[AOEforme]

I love it! I think it's a great look for your first round!

That is a wonderful theme. What are some events you are doing?

This isn't really recruitment ideas, but:
How do you get your chapter to be seen as a "legitimate" sorority? I have a friend in another organization, and she was talking about stuff they do for their formal dates and mentioned she wasn't sure how it would be for a "non-greek and a greek" i was just like woah... we're greek.
i think our biggest problem of being accepted is our chapter size which is a big deal in the south, but how does your chapter deal with and overcome this issue? and what are some of the barriers your chapter faces?

[AOEforme]

For our chapter, getting on Panhellenic really helped.

Also, you just need to do your thing. Part of the problem is that you are a new chapter and part of it is you are a non-NPC sorority.

You really need to get your chapter involved with things seen as "traditional greek activities": fraternity mixers, philanthropies, etc.

If people see you all and your letters more often, it well help "legitimize" you.

We're begining to plan fall recruitment, and I am very excited.

Possible themes we've come up with:
* AΩE and the City (Sex and the City Themed)
* Lily Pulitzer theme (We haven't come up with a cute title yet)
* Sail away with AΩE (Nautical theme)
