I wouldn't exactly say that Alpha Gamma Delta was created for the purpose of expansion. Our Founders started us with the intention of becoming a *new international women's fraternity*--we installed our Beta chapter 1 day after celebrating our first birthday.
I also wouldn't say that aggressive expansion is our goal--on the contrary, I think Alpha Gam is rather cautious. The colony that we are installing at Chapman University is our first in 2 years. Our International Council looks at a boatload of different criteria to judge whether a colonization is in our best interest.
FWIW, I'm glad we seem to be cautious...I would rather expand slowly and make sure that we can support 1 really strong new chapter than colonize a whole bunch and spread our resources too thinly. Slow and steady wins the race.
So....getting back on topic, congratulations to the women of GSU on a successful rush! I wish them the best of luck in the future!
