yay for a possible sigma expansion!!

Right now it's, I believe, 11 fraternities and 2 sororities. But it's a fairly strong system. The sorority expansion will be good, because from what I've heard there's a lot of competition between the two groups and I think a third will balance that out.

Oh! and I've met a few of the Lambda Chi alums from the AGD alums.

... and I thought that this thread was going to be about a sorority that did a bit too much over-eating.

Wow. Really you can stop now. It's not funny posting random things in EVERY thread when it's obvious you haven't even read it.

At least when I post asinine things, I've read the thread.

Go easy on the Beaver, Jess.

:p

Alright, if you insist;)

I just heard that Alpha Xi Delta was asked to colonize at WPI. Congrats to them!

Congratulations to Alpha Xi Delta!

I need to contact my sources about Coastal Carolina University.

Congratulations A Xi D!

AOII is pleased to announce that we will be colonizing at the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology next month and the University of Arkansas in the fall as well as the University of La Verne!

Congratulations!!

Heh, there's just roses of all colors popping up everywhere!! Congrats :)

Thats really great that we are colonizing at WPI. We also just recently colonized at Monmoth University.

CONGRATULATIONS to both Alpha Xi Delta and Alpha Omicron Pi on their new colonies!!:D :D

Congratulations to all who are expanding. About AOII's expansion at the U. of Arkansas, specifically, a news report on U. of Arkansas Board of Trustees actions says that the trustees have approved the construction of a new AOII sorority house there.

Edited to add: Please see the 4-5-06 post by irishpipes later in this thread. According to that post, the info below from the news report referenced in this posting is incorrect. Thank you, irishpipes.

The plans are for a 30,000 square foot house with 85 beds at a cost of $7 to $8 million. The trustees have approved the architects and construction company, as well as a land lease arrangement. The article is available through nwaonline.net at

The article headline is "University of Arkansas Board of Trustees Notes," and the AOII news has a secondary headline (scroll down) "Board Approves New Sorority House."

So it looks like housing is in the works! I thought this article was also interesting for the insight it gives on some of the the potential cost of expansion at a major SEC school. (By the way, there's also an article on trustee approval of a Sigma Nu fraternity house in the same "notes" of the trustees' meeting.)

Holly Stuff, Bat Boy!

Sounds like Razor Back Country is on the Move for Greeks.:cool:

Un Of Ark. has always been a Strong Supporter of Greek Life!:)

Congratulations to AOII and SN for expansion!
