Good luck!!!

Is this a tough campus for Greeks? Tons of kids - and I mean probably 1/3 - from my high school typically go on to Marquette. I went to a Catholic HS in the Chicago suburbs. Kids who had good grades but not good enough for Notre Dame, Northwestern, or Illinois flocked there. I think they liked that it was Catholic, close to home but still out-of-state, and a good school. I never really heard of any of them going Greek though.

Shala, clean out your box woman!

I thought that was St. Norbert College?! LOL (by the way, SNC is where I did 3 years of undergrad and there were MANY students from Chicago!)

My cousin is actually a sophomore at Marquette - and her oldest brother is a Triangle alumnus from Marquette. . . . . aopirose, keep me updated and I MAY be able to get her interested - or at least interested enough to attend an informational session! Would this be a colonization from the ground up or from an interest group?

Marquette was also where Kappa Beta Gamma Sorority was founded (which is a non-NPC national sorority mostly found in the Midwest).

I believe that it would be a ground up endeavor. I wish the best of luck to whichever group is selected.

We're presenting at Marquette this week too!

Good-luck to you guys! I'm sure your presentation was amazing & I know you guys impressed everyone there.

Well, we didn't get Marquette. Good luck to the sorority chosen! (I know who it is and I think that they will do great.)

That's okay...more time to focus on Aiken and upcoming Arkansas!

FYI- Several girls from Lambda Sigma went to Aiken to help with Recruitment. All of the new girls are high quality. Should make for a strong chapter!

Also, the girls from Aiken will be joining Lambda Sigma for Founder's Day Dinner on Jan. 23rd! Allison Allgier, Vice President of Development at AOII Headquarters, will be our guest speaker. We're all really excited!

aopirose, what are you talking about? Are we presenting somewhere today?

Since you are in the know... Do you know why the NPC site doesn't list the schools that are open for expansion? It seems that would alert local alumnae who could express interest to their respective GLOs. I mean, that isn't confidential, right? I understand not publicizing who is presenting or who is chosen until the groups want that information out, but I don't understand if a bulletin goes out to a bunch of people anyway, why that info can't be more available. I know you don't work for the NPC, but I was just wondering.

That's probably why.

The equivalent of "dirty rushing" could occur, only on a much larger level.
