There was a recent post in the expansion thread in the Greek Life forum, announcing that the following schools are open for expansion:
Florida Atlantic University Southern Utah University St. John's University - Queens (Main Campus) St. John's University - Staten Island - adding a second NPC University of Oregon University of Cincinnati Valdosta State University Lake Erie College (OH) Kansas State University San Jose State University It's going to be really exciting to see if we express interest in any of these schools, and if we are asked to make presentations at any of them. I'd love to see us at Lake Erie or Cincy (since I'm in Ohio). I'd also like to see us recolonize our Kansas State chapter (Delta Phi). |
An FAU colony would be exciting for me, considering my chapter (Zeta Epsilon) and my cousin's chapter (Eta Eta) would both be able to assist! Still, our lack of chapters at the big state school could hurt us in that aspect. But Eta Eta is doing well, and they are 15 mins. away from FAU, which is a positive!
San Jose State is my mom's alma mater, and that would make me CRAZY excited. Epsilon Alpha is 20 mins. away from SJSU, and they are also doing well. Similar to an FAU decision, we only have one CA chapter... We previously presented at Lake Erie, and it was a good presentation, so that could give us a strong chance of being given the opportunity to try again! I hope so! And then, there's the BIG DADDY: I would be SO excited for Tri Sigma to return to K-State. Our success at Mizzou and the strength of our chapters in KS could be a good indicator for how we would stand there. I'm crossing my fingers for all of these!!! :) It would be great for us to join any of these PHC communities! Eagerly anticipating the results... |
I would love to see Phi (Ohio University) being recolonized as well as Kappa (Miami University), Beta Psi (Youngstown State University) and Beta Gamma (Ball State University). I feel that Ohio is sorely underrepresented with only two chapters...with only one being a big state university. Eta Iota is all by its lonesome in NW Ohio....

Fun fact: Owners of Alpha House, our official vendor are both Kappa chapter alumnae. |

Ole Miss
This would be a stretch I think, but then again this is "dream" colonizations right?!
I'll be moving to Mississippi soon, and with no collegiate or alumni chapters, I'd love to see us at Ole Miss! However, I know with huge schools like that it takes a lot of time and money to make a go at it. (I'll keep my fingers crossed in the meantime not just for this school but for all our dream colonizations/redevelopments!) |
I would love to see Sigma colonize at Valdosta State University! Being a transplant to Georgia (originally from SC, where Sigma has 4 chapters), everyone always looks at me strange when I say which sorority I was a member of. It's kinda like...If they don't have it at UGA, no one knows about it ;-)
It would be nice to feel some more Sigma love here in the Peach state! |

After just reading today that Phi Mu took 252 new members in their first recruitment at the University of South Carolina. Too bad we couldn't have an opportunity like that. With 4 Sigma chapters already in that state. |
Here's hope for Rho Chapter
Florida State is open for expansion. I believe the housing corporation still owns the house.
ETA: Rho was chartered in 2/2/1920 and remained open until 1990. In 1992, Rho was redeveloped and remained open until 1999. |

Agree. Rho chapter probably has a lot of history.
Many years ago I remember at one of our conventions meeting an awesome lady from there. I believe her name was Ida. |
We are presenting at University of Michigan-Flint!
I do not know which other groups will be presenting. |

So, I'm wary. Still keeping my fingers crossed! I'm hoping I'm wrong! |
What does everyone think of the post over on the Expansion thread in the Greek Life Forum of the following campuses being open for presentations?
Boise State University University of Connecticut - Stamford University of Tampa University of Texas-El Paso Do you think we have our hands full enough with colonizations already or will we perhaps make a stab at these campuses? Any news on Florida State? |

I'd like to see us take a look at UTEP and Tampa for sure (the others would be good too). FSU presentations are the week of March 22nd, and the decision will be announced April 9th. So they are still in the early phases (the sororities are still sending in packets and doing exploratory visits). |
