Beating "Small Chapter" syndrome
I was just wondering if anyone had any brillant ideas for how to overcome "small chapter syndrome" (definition: a good, strong chapter who, because of their diminuitive size, has trouble reaching quota, COBing, etc.)
I swear, it would be so great just to stand up during Recruitment and say, DAMNIT! if you and your friend will just pledge, and the chapter gets quota, then the small chapter will no longer be small!! 1 + 1 + 1. . . =TOTAL
Just to clarify, I am trying to get opinions on chapters that are strong already in chapter operations, scholarship, philanthropic, etc. You know the chapters I'm talking about, the only thing that seems to hurt them is numbers.
I am the president of the smallest NPC chapter on my campus, and I am trying to figure out a way to best describe my "MIGHTYMOUSE" chapter to PNM's during my introductions.
