The Sisters instigated tough rules, and those who didn't follow them were out the door. It took a few years, but they are now up for Alpha Delta Pi's most coveted award at this summer's convention.

At PSU, the recolonization was handled very well - the largest colony in Alpha Delta Pi history! From what I've heard, it had the same pattern. They, too, had a slight dip, but is now going from strength to strength.

I could name a few other sororities whose recolonizations went well, but it wouldn't be fair for me to do without intimate knowledge.

I went to grade school with an ADPi sister at Pitt.
