Re: Re: Columbia
 

I would like Theta Nu Xi to expand at SEC schools (LSU,Bama ect) Big 10 schools, and out West [/B][/QUOTE]


I'd also love to see Theta Nu Xi at the following schools

Louisiana Tech
Florida
University of Georgia
Any Texas school (especially UNT, TWU,UTD,SMU)
Any Big 10 school
Any Ivy Legue school

I second that! :D But we do seem to be OK in California. But other than that, definately.

We are also pretty weak in New England...only one active chapter in Connecticut, one in Boston, and I don't know of any others in that area. Which is sad...surrounding areas, like New York and New Jersey, have several chapters.

I'd love to see us:


--in the west
--in New England
--in Alaska
--we had a chapter in Hawaii, as well as an alum chapter. It'd be awesome to see those return!

i think i have a friend i work with who just joined aephi, and mentioned they were having a chapter ceremony, becaue they were only a colony.

what makes a chapter a chapter from a colony? she told me, but i dont remember the distinction.

Chi O was once in Canada, but it was a long, long time ago.
Any alumnae are likely deceased

NW AOII Chapters
 

I'd love to see any of the Oregon AOII chapters recolonized

A Colony is like being engaged!

A Chartered Chapter is like being Married:)

I would love to see ZTA out West. I would like to see us recolonize at the University of Arizona and reopen chapters at Cali schools like UCLA, USC, UC-Berkeley, and Univ. of San Diego. Also, I'd like to see us recolonize at UNLV. I would love to see our defunct Kentucky chapters reopen. Bring back the Kansas colony!!!!
It would also be nice to see ZTA concentrate on colonizing at schools outside of the South. It seems that we have been establishing chapters mostly in Florida, South Carolina, and Virginia in recent years.

ETA:
Recolonize the Ole Miss chapter!!!!!

Haha! Never thought about it that way, but what a perfect comparison, Tom! :D

I would love to see AOII back at LSU. That chapter closed back in the 1980s I believe. Their charter is held in trust though. I would also love to see a new chapter at a school like University of Arkansas, then we would have chapters at just about ever SEC school in the conference. I was also thinking about some chapters at smaller universities and colleges.

I'd personally love to see a chapter in Ottawa, Vancouver, or Halifax in Canada....

I'd also love to see some of the older inactive chapters re-colonized in the North East (Syracuse comes to mind).

Basically a colony is a group working on becoming a chapter by learning about the organization they plan on affiliating with and learning how to run a chapter (everthing from how to recruit to how to handle chapter finances, etc.). During the groups time as a colony they work closely with national to make sure they learn everything they need to flourish as a chapter. When the national organization feels they are strong enough they become a full-fledged chapter.

Well, there may not be an AOII chapter at U of A, but there's one here at Arkansas State University, and they are GREAT ladies!! :D A close friend of mine was initiated into their chapter last semester.

I'm with you on this! My sales territory is in the the Western part of the U.S. and I'd love to see more Zetas when I travel that way.

Plus I REALLY want our Omega chapter at SMU to come back!!

I would like to see AGD at University of Louisville and Morehead University, because we are so strong in KY already. It would easy to establish b/c of alumnae.

I would also like us to reestablish in TX universities and Louisiana (LSU, LSU Lafayette) because my neice is in that area and though she is only 3 I see great things for her!

Of course I would like to see us back at Alpha. For that matter all the closed chapters.

Glad you were able to meet some of our fine sisters while at The Pitt :)

I am always curious behind the reasons some chapters close, but I am so proud for their contributions to the Greek life atmosphere!

Maybe my chapter should get some functions together with LXA (they just colonized on my chapter's campus last year) :D

Your president who married the ADPi knew the right woman for him (and most guys, in fact) are ADPi's ;)

One of the advisors at my old chapter is married to a LXA. He goes with her to all the functions that she has to go to, formals and stuff, he's so cute!

I wish there were more KD chapters in CA. I went to Univeristy of Oregon for college, but now I'm back in California where I grew up. Whenever I mention what sorority I'm in to people down here, not a lot of them have heard of it. Hopefully KD will come back to USC and also open up at UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine, Cal State Fullerton and Chico State. I'd love to see more KD chapters in CA.

I thought AEPhi was colonizing at Queens? Also, what NPC's are at Baruch? I personally would love to see the rest of the SDT NYC chapters that we used to have re-colonzied, including chapters at Lehman's and at Hunter.

If AEPhi's colonizing at Queens I haven't heard about it. If they are it's probably in the very beginning stages b/c the last updated chapter/colony list I received was in october. I don't have any connections at Queens so if you heard anything please PM me

As for Baruch and City College I was referring to NIC chapters. Baruch has Alpha Phi Delta and I think City College has Tau Epsilon Phi

i'd like to see sigma kappa at texas tech. i *think* they were there a long time ago and lost their charter. they've always seemed like the neatest girls.

I would like to see two Kappa chapters re-colonized - the University of Maryland chapter (Gamma Psi), and Boston University (Phi). Out of all the chapters that Kappa has chartered, only 20 have been closed and four or five of those schools no longer have greek life!

I would like the same thing as KDButterfly, more Chi O chapters in California. I guess there used ot be a lot, but many of them closed. It would be cool to see them re-opened, so I could serve as an advisor!

In discussing this with a Bother last night, it seems that The Male Greeks are more spread out than The Female Greeks.

With a few exceptions, Fraternitys are spread from the 4 corners of the USA and Canada.

While, it seems, and I did not realize this until Greek Chat that there are Soroities who are not in Canada or in certain sections of the USA!

Is or are there any Soroities that are consistantly Strong Country wide?

Hey CutiePie!:D Just wanted to chime in that Gamma Phi Beta Has five Canadian Chapters, one of which is inactive:

Alpha Alpha Univ of Toronto (chartered 1919)
Alpha Kappa Univ of Manitoba (1925-1975)
Alpha Lambda Univ of British Columbia (chartered 1928)
Alpha Tau McGill Univ (Chartered 1931)
Alpha Omega Univ of Western Ontario (chartered 1936)


I would LOVE for Gamma Phi to recharter at all the schools where we used to have chapters, but I would especially like to see our Mu Chapter at Stanford (1905-1992) and Vanderbilt (1924-1998), Texas Tech (1956-2001), Univ of Texas (1922-1988), Univ of Las Vegas-Reno (1921-2000) and Marquette (for GeekyPenguin's sake!)

New Charters -- I would Love for Gamma Phi to colonize at the University of Florida, at Elon College, at the University of Hawaii as well as at the Ivy League schools like Harvard & Yale & Brown....also I want us to expand in Georgia since I live here now and we just have UGA and Southern Polytechnic State University (ADPi used to be there and AXD is colonizing there now): Georgia Tech needs Gamma Phi! I would love for us to be at University of West Georgia, Oglethorpe and LaGrange too....

I agree with an earlier post -- I would love to see ALL the inactive chapters of the NPC sororites back where they used to be...a few notables that I personally and panhellenically would like to see open up again:

AGD at Syracuse and USC
Theta Phi Alpha at UCLA
Chi Omega at USC and SDSU
Kappa Alpha Theta at Auburn
KD at Loyola-Marymount


OH...yeah...I would love for Gamma Phi to colonize at Pittsburg State so I could volunteer to help out and finally meet TOM!:D ;)

Not to sound conceded but I would have to say that AGD is consistantly strong across the US and Canada. There are a few states where we don't have a chapter currently, but we are in Hawaii and Canada (Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, and Ontario), plus 36 states (counting Hawaii). In the states we stretch from Washington to Hawaii, Florida to New York.

I would like to get a chapter in the remaining 14 states. Reinstate the chapters lost and establish chapters in Maine and Alaska.

Rumor has it here at Elon (now University) that we may be getting another sorority this fall! So maybe GPhiB will be one of the GLOs on campus soon! I've always heard such wonderful things about Gamma Phi from my friends at other schools. :)

~Sharon

GTOWNGIRL, I agree, yepper AGD is at Pitt St, My Ex Was an AGD! EX, being the key word!

GPhiBLtC!!! If it would happen, I would be there to give as much assistance as possible!:cool:

While I think the world of all 3 of the Soroities there, AGD, ASA, and Tri Sigma, it could not but only help to expand!

Right now, there are only 3 Fraternities there who are semi strong, as TKE closed shjrtly ater I lft, PSK is having problems, been there a short to SPE just had a Chapter Cleaning and My on, LXA have had Time membership problems with an old peice of crap house and now torn down it is hard!

6,500 students and @ 5-6 % are Greeks!:( :eek: :o :mad:

CELE, it would be hard but not unfathomable!:D

Bring it on Sweety!:cool:

If The Ladies of GPB are anything like on GC it would be a very nice touch!:)

Re: Re: Re: Columbia
 

I'd give a lung to see Theta Nu Xi at the University of Georgia!!!!!!!!!!

SORRY FOR ANOTHER POST!!!!
 

You're at OU, right??? I went there from '97-'99 and one of your sisters was my roommate. :)

In florida and NY, that way we have an excuse for travel and its a fun place to visit :)

Places that I would love to see chapters...
 

I would love to see
Gamma Phi Beta, Sigma Kappa, and AEPhi all back at Vanderbilt. All three were there at various times and have left.

I would love to see AOII back at Austin Peay State University or a new chapter at the University of the South Sewanee, Tennessee Tech, or University of TN Chattanooga.

I would also love for AOII to be back at LSU (Boo-boo bad Alpha curse.)

Question for those of you in the know.....I have a recruitment t-shirt from 2000 Vanderbilt that has Kappa Delta Phi on it....Ideas?

Silver

I'd like to see another chapter of Sigma Nu somewhere in Oklahoma. We're only at the University of Tulsa, Oklahoma University, Oklahoma State University and Central Oklahoma.

There are still almost 30 schools to go in this state :D

Re: Places that I would love to see chapters...
 

I have run across KDPhi (http://www.kappadeltaphi.org) but I am not familiar with them being at Vanderbilt. KDPhi is a fraternity with a sister organization also named KDPhi (http://www.kappadeltaphinas.org or http://www.kdpnas.com). However, the sorority adds “NAS” to their name. “NAS” means National Affiliated Sorority. Could the Vanderbilt group have been a now closed colony or chapter? Check out the archives of the school’s paper and yearbooks from that period. It would be interesting to see they ventured outside the northeast.


BTW - I'd love to be back at LSU too.

[in a goofy mood]

I'd love to have Theta Pi be the first sorority on Mars. I mean, Dubya wants to colonize it, so why can't we?

[/end goofy mood]

I'd like to see more chapters of DG in West Virginia. I'd also to have Alpha Gamma Delta, Phi Mu, and Kappa Delta come to WVU!

We NEED another chapter in SD. There's only one here, and it's in Vermillion. If SD is a rectangle, vermillion is the lower right hand corner. There are some good sized chapers in Rapid City at South Dakota SMT, i think we need to colonize there.

Kitso
KS 361 applications i'd fill out to be their house dad :D

I think it'd be cool if the Theta chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta were to recolonize at Simpson College. That isn't too likely though....I think it's been closed since like 1912.

I wish more chapters would come back to my campus of ISU (where I went to school), since 1997 we've lost a lot of them, and very few have returned.
Fraternities the campus has lost lost:
Phi Kappa Psi (they are currently recolonizing)
Phi Kappa Tau
Sigma Nu
Delta Chi
Delta Sigma Phi (they are also starting up again)
and Sororities that we've lost:
Alpha Phi
Alpha Xi Delta
