I recently found out that one of the sororities on campus has been shut down . I had heard, from a friend on the PHC exec council, that my school had considered expansion last year. Would it be considered rude to email the Greek Adviser and ask her if the school is now considering expansion?

Thank you so much for your help.
You can ask, but if you're thinking you're going to get Phi Mu to colonize there, then you're probably going to end up disappointed.

Even if your school was opened for expansion, Phi Mu would have to be interested in your campus. There are many factors (funding, alumnae support, housing, etc.) to consider.

And usually more than one sorority makes a presentation to the school, and the campus Panhellenic votes on which group they think would be a good fit.

In addition to all of the hoops to jump through, this isn't a quick process.

I would try to get involved as an alumna if I were you.
