so many obstacles...

Me, along with 3 other women, have laid the groundwork for a new sorority - from the constitution to the symbols and philanthropy, we have it all down. Next step (which will be done in the coming few months) is incorporation.

The first obstacle is that we are not officially affliated with the unviersity - we missed the deadline to join the multicultural greek council at the school. You MUST be under a greek counil to be a GLO at this university...

Second, we were told we could basically still do community service activities and gather a founding group of ladies, but couldn't do anything on campus.

Third, we have a LOT of competition ahead with other GLOs on this campus...there are many GLOs here. This may not be too much of a problem since the purpose of this sorority is unlike any other we know about on this campus or elsewhere.

Fourth is a question: if we aren't allowed to be noticeably present on campus right now, how do we recruit more ladies so that when next year comes and we are official with the school, we will have a healthy presence?

Fifth is also a question: should we try and affiliate with a fraternity (we have one in mind...) to get ourselves out? And if so, how do we approach them?

If someone can't answer any of the bove questions, any and all advice would be appreciated.
