I'm an alumni member of Alpha Kappa Phi Sorority (Agonian). This is a regional sorority thru the New York college system. In 1957 NYS put a ban on national fraternity/sorority organizations, so all these groups had to cut ties with their national affiliation. The ban was lifted in eth early 1980s. Many local/regional groups still thrive at these campuses all over NYS. Many of these regional or locals do have more than one chapter and usually hold conventions to talk about tradtions, history etc. Many of them have websites, ours is http://organizations.oneonta.edu/sorority/akphi/ which has links to our other chapters.

Do you mean NYS as in all of New York State? Because my chapter has been on campus since 1911 (Adelphi Universiy in Garden City, NY). Unless that didn't include private schools?

There are no locals at Adelphi, they were banned in 1992. I know there are a few locals at St. John's and Hofstra.
