There is 1 other local that is recognized by the college and 1 that is working on becoming recognized. I would still like to affiliate with an NPC but my college says they "do not have the resources available" to help us.

yay!! that's great, do you have any girls interested?
We used to try to have every sister bring at least one girl, interested or not really (friends, etc), we often got PNM's through girls that had been at the house and had told their friends about us. Just a thought

GOOD LUCK!

We have a handful that are interested. We're not expecting a large group because it is Spring semester. A few of the girls who are coming are friends of active sisters, so I agree that it a great way to recruit people!

I'm so nervous about this semester's recruitment. I'm advising my local, Mu Phi Gamma, and we have a very apathetic seeming group of girls this semester...we only got one girl last semester...and we're at a total of 9 active sisters. We used to average about 20! Any advice?

First you need to resolve the attitude of the girls in your sorority before you start recruiting outside girls. If nothing is done and you take a new pledge class, that attitude will rub off on them, or they will get a bad impression after they start pledging and decide to quit and that will further hurt your sorority. See what's causing the problems with the current members and if you have to hold a rush later in the semester to fix what's going on, so be it. I'd rather fix the problem, have everyone on the same level to take a new pledge class, and have the pledge class enjoy themselves with the current members than not fix the problem, take a pledge class and have everyone drop and maybe active members even quit. That's my advice.

Otterbein's Fraternities and Sororities are doing recruitment as we speak. Tomorrow will be Novelty Parties. Last weekend was Open House. I'm pulling for my sisters! And I'm super proud of them for reclaiming highest GPA last term .

<--- Well Chuffed Tau Delta Alumna.

My recently founded local, Alpha Mu Sigma, has just been recognized as a club on our campus! We do not have a recognized greek life at my school so I'm hoping this is the first step in making that possible. In less than a month, we will have our first recruitment. I'm so excited!

Congratulations!!! I know how gratifying it is to be a founder of a local sorority and how much MORE gratifying it is once you are a college recognized organization Are you looking to affiliate with a national?

A quick update...as some of you know, my campus has repeatedly denied requests to bring an NPC to campus. I contacted the assistant activities director the other day and she responded that they do not have the resources available to bring an NPC to campus. I emailed her yesterday inquiring about the resources that we would need that they would not be able to offer and this is what she replied with....

" Hi _______,
I've been doing a bit more research about the prospect of having an NPC group on campus and could possibly accommodate the requirements, depending on what the national office needs RIC to do. Do you have a specific NPC group in mind?

Thanks,
__________"

So, it seems as though we are moving in the right direction now and that all of my persistence may pay off!!!

Good luck, I was involved in getting my chapter of APO re-chartered and assisted in the chartering of another, that that one did not work out. It can be a really exciting and fun process. have fun and keep us updated.
