There was a third sorority here until last year.They were old (about 90 years) and up until a few years ago, powerful. I'm not sure what zapped them but I think it was taking the wrong people for a couple of rushes--then, of course, they had a hard time taking in members.

Because of the past hazing, there are also a lot of sophs, juniors, and seniors who never pledged. The hazing is over with forever but these women refused to join while it was going on--more power to them! I think that many would consider Greek life now. These include women who I'd be proud to put my pin on...sometimes I look out at my classes and think, "Now that one would really be an outstanding Greek...that other one would make a great president...etc."

So yes, I think that there's definitely room for a third sorority that's as big as the other 2. I'll bet that when the nationals come, the excitement will spur interest in colonizing from the ground up!
