Meanwhile, I go over to You Tube and cannot believe the ridiculous and EXPENSIVE videos I see...and most are just 'here we are doing awesome things, air balloons, fancy beaches, blowing bubbles..." Again, one on one in our chapter house really opened up new rushees so we could learn about each other..

How do others feel ?
The videos are taking just as much time as skits to prepare, if not more, and they're getting completely overblown and competitive...because they're often public and other groups can see them. So, it's turning into an expensive game of one-upmanship. The videos are rarely contributing to Values Based Recruitment.
