As someone who has been on a Panhellenic Extension Committee, I have a few questions for you.

1. Are all of the chapters at total, including Pink? If not, how close are they?

2. Who is presenting to Panhellenic (i.e. your interest group or a Panhellenic-appointed committee)?

3. Do you have hard evidence that demand for sorority life is increasing? Has the number of women registered for recruitment been steadily climbing? I'm guessing no because total was lowered. The increase in percentage of Greeks at your school may be because of increased interest in fraternity life or a decrease in the number of enrolled students.

4. Has there been a large number of women cross released (cut by all 4,not suiciding, not dropping out) for no apparent reason? (Granted, you'll never know why a PNM was cut, but PNMs with a bad GPA, bad reputation, extremely unkempt appearance, junior/senior class standing--varies by school, extreme weirdness, etc. generally will be cut by every chapter and won't be the first women that a new colony would reach out to with the exception of upperclassmen)

5. What do you think adding a 5th NPC would add to your campus? Is there a niche not being fulfilled?

6. How big is your interest group?


Also, keep in mind that NPC Extension is not really the decision of the chapter presidents or any of the collegians. Every chapter at your school will have a Regional or National NPC Delegate who will make the final say in whether that chapter votes yes or no for Extension.

Based on the information you've given us, I think you're in for another disappointment.
