If they won't listen to you, go over their heads to whoever is next highest up in the chain of command. Be sure to back up your complaints with facts (since they started making you invite everyone, your return rates have dropped 25%, etc.).

You also might want to pass a bylaw (for now you can strongly suggest) that every sister must be involved in one campus activity outside of the sorority. No, jobs don't count. No woman wants to join a chapter whose members do sorority and nothing else - it contributes to the "snobby" stereotype.
Would it be a bad idea to mention possibly changing this when I'm trying to get elected? I don't want to make any empty promises, but if this is something that actually could happen I would like to do it.

As far as requiring people to be in more activities, I think that is already a requirement in our chapter! I don't know of anyone that is NOT in another activity.
