Tips for getting elected recruitment chair for a weak recruiting chapter?

If you end up with more PNMs at the first rounds of parties than you have sisters, do NOT assign 2-3 PNMs to talk to one sister. We get complaints about this on GC all the time from women going through rush - there's usually one PNM who dominates the conversation and the other two are left out, so you have 2 bad things happening: PNMs feel left out and sisters don't get to talk to PNMs. Instead, keep sisters in groups of 3 and bring 4-5 PNMs to the conversation. The sisters need to keep on point with making sure all PNMs are included - and it's easier for 3 sisters to do this than just one.

We usually avoid this! It happened with two sisters during one round this year and that was it- I totally agree, it doesn't work. I like the idea of doing group conversations because we do that during informal and it's more comfortable (although that's only 1 PNM to 3-5 girls, not 2-3 PNMs to 3-5 girls)

Be careful with having too many sisters talking to only one PNM because that can be considered hot boxing and dirty rush.
