National posted on their Facebook page that we will be colonizing at Washington University in St. Louis in Spring 2013!

That is awesome news, WashU is a great school. I am glad to know it is 2013 and not 14. I am thrilled about university of San Diego, too.

WCSweet: If you don't mind me asking, who was the woman from your chapter who helped with BU's colonization? My chapter was involved in the process and I'm curious to know if I met her.

WUSTL Panhel's vote was unanimous.

KD will recruit in the spring of 2013. WUSTL has January recruitment. Nationals plans to observe recruitment next month. Nationals will send two CDCs to live full time on campus during the fall, prior to recruitment to meet potential new members. They'll start recruiting and training CAB before recruitment. WUSTL sororities don't have houses, so no House Corp.

I'm excited about San Diego, too.

Check out the article about KD in the WashU student newspaper:

Possible presentation at at Dayton
 

Did anyone else in SW Ohio get the email today about the possibility of presenting for expansion at at university of Dayton? They are assessing alumni strength and asking about ability to serve on advisory boards, etc if they decide to present.

I have to say, I've got mixed feelings a bit. I love to see Kappa Delta expand, but SW Ohio is pretty saturated with UC, NKU, Wilmington College, Miami, Wittenberg and Wright State. If they colonize at UD, that would be 5 chapters in a 30 -40 mile radius, not to mention the 2 large chapters in greater Cincinnati. We have active alum groups in Cinci and Dayton, but that's a lot to support. It seems as if they are often sending out a call for advisors. Miami and Wilmington (and Springfield for that matter) are a bit off the beaten track for meetings if you live in the Cincinnati region and Dayton is not a large city. Of course, the more chapters you have the more alums you have, so maybe it's not an issue. I do love the idea of expanding nearby. SW Ohio is becoming KD Central!

I loved being an advisor, so any of you who are considering it....you won't regret it!
