This is all set out in their club consitution so that means each group is in a sketchy way recognized by the school.

During my tenure as Panhellenic President, my main goal was to work with the FSC President to do exactly what you're talking about
: get Panhellenic quasi-recognized as a committee of FSC. Although we had the support of the FSC President, the administration shot the idea down. It was extremely frustrating--ladyj39 has it exactly right when she says that there is a huge bias against national organizations.
The only thing that I can think of to advertise Panhellenic is to ask each of the individual sororities to include the names of all the NPCs on campus when you advertise (i.e, posters in the Student Union, ads in the paper). Make sure the recruitment posters have all the same dates, and that the contact person is your Panhellenic Delegate (who will sneakily steer everyone to the Panhellenic Council). Just don't use the word Panhellenic, NPC, or CPC in your advertising.
Another idea...I know that Alpha Gam and Alpha Phi chapters have websites. Let's get a Phi Sig website up, AND (this is crucial!) get a CPC website up. While the Panhellenic can't get an SFSU website because it isn't recognized, it CAN do a geocities website or something similar.It wouldn't cost much money--only time. Make sure that all the chapter's websites have prominent links to the CPC website. All the formal rush information can be there. (Just to CYA, make sure that the CPC website has a disclaimer saying that it is not a recognized organization at SF State.) The internet is a great advertising tool, and I think its a great way to get around not being able to advertise on campus.
Hope this helps somewhat.
