You had a plan. I am not against expansion. But to get really business like for a moment, most start-up businesses fail because they have no plan or an inadequate plan for growth.
The same can probably be said of sororities and fraternities.
Jenn, I wish you the absolute best in whatever your final decision may be. Just remember, starting and maintaining even a well established organization is a lot of HARD work. It will NOT always be fun.
My goal was simply to show you another side to the challenge of establishing a sorority. and pique your interest in first really researching the existing sororities. And if you were to find that none of the sororities on your campus or in your community interest you, then you would know in your heart and on paper that it really was time to start something new.
Perhaps your sorority will very simple by design. Perhaps your Sorority will only exist on your current campus forever. Perhaps your Sorority will not have a need for dues. Perhaps your Sorority will limits its membership to 10 members per year. Who knows? Its your Sorority. You can make it be whatever you want it to be...and I say that with the best intentions.

Jenn, In your defense, and not against Finer Woman, I started my own local! I did know all of the Fraternitys on my campus and did not want to join.
Ergo I started my own and the idea was to affiliate with a Large National.
I do not think it is right for members of GC to Put Down someone who is interested in starting something new!
If that was the case, None Of Us Would be here!
We would all belong to (A) Fraternity, or (B) Soroity! Get the Picture???
