Oh, it is not wasting time...it is compiling important data for the greek world. That is pretty interesting! I had no idea that my own group was the only org. on 2 campus!

One of the things that this exercise did for me was to realize which sororities were biggest in the West, NorthEast, and South - or even state by state. I would do one state and think, "wow, we're on every campus!" then move to the next state, and notice that every chapter we had in that state was now closed. Talk about eye openers!

IDK (...my bff Jill? lol) how everyone is getting different numbers! lol

I looked at my Alpha Phi list to compare with yours and I realized I had counted a lot of ones that weren't actually Alpha Phi chapters, for example Zeta Tau Alpha's Phi chapter (which is at my own alma mater!).

Also, I originally counted all asterisked chapters in Irishpipes' list until I went back and researched which were open and which were closed. So, anyway epchick, your count for DG and Alpha Phi was right and now my list reflects that too.

For once, this is a list I'm glad we're at the bottom!

Why would you be glad to be at the bottom of that list? :confused: Being the only NPC chapter at a school doesn't seem like a negative.

Leslie Anne, I wonder if you'd be willing to list which schools have only one chapter. Pretty please? :D

You're absolutely correct, Leslie Anne. Though we're the only NPC on campus, there are 3 local sororities, and one of those groups usually has a strong pledge class each Fall (they only rush in the Fall) and they also usually do very well during Greek Week. I'd say that they're definitely our biggest competitor.

And regarding the Alpha Gam chapter at Dalhousie, for those who didn't already know, the chapter is made up of women from Dalhousie University, Dal Tech, Saint Mary's University, The University of King's College, Mount Saint Vincent University, and the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design.

Are there any other NPCs who have chapters comprised of students from more than one school?

nittanyalum 02-23-2008 12:47 AM

First, wow, Leslie Anne, that was a lot of work! Thanks for doing it! (I really don't know how any of you are doing all of this :p)

And second --

That's really interesting! I didn't even know that was possible. I'll be curious to hear about any others.

BTW, OTW, thanks for teaching me how to properly spell Hawai'i.

It's actually kinda fun. And...I have no social life! :D


ETA: I wouldn't even have attempted it without the list Irishpipes created. It's a goldmine!

I thought the same thing as Nittany. What a great place to have a chapter. Can you imagine Rush? Instead of the actives screaming they would just be waving their hands like mad!

I would also love to see the initiation ceremony... hmmm, too bad I am not a Delta Zeta.

ComradesTrue 02-23-2008 09:16 AM

Oh, and Lesilie Anne-

Thanks so much for compiling all that info. How very interesting.

Thank you for all of your work.

MedCentral still does not have any sororities. CSU and Shawnee have locals (AEPhi was at CSU until a few years ago). TPA is the only sorority at Franciscan University of Steubenville
