In our suite, we actually have this ancient copy of a Pitt student organization handbook, which has tons of pictures of Greek Organizations in it. It's from about 1968, and at that point, the only sororities other than the 11 we have now were Phi Sigma Sigma and Kappa Alpha Theta. I'm guessing Phi Sig must have gone inactive sometime within the 70's...
As for expanding on our campus, we cannot do so yet, as over half of our sororities remain under quota, be it by 40 spots, or by 4. It all comes down to interest I guess...
Does anyone have any other interesting Pitt Greek stories? Anyone know where their chapters were located before moving into Amos/McCormick or the Hill?

Phi Sigma Sigma was on the 6th floor of Amos Hall, but had less than 10 sisters aroung 1974. Tri-Sigma colonized right afterwards. Delta Phi Epsilon was down to about 6 members when Kappa Delta colonized. There seems to be a cap on how many sororities are capable of being on Pitt campus at the same time, although I have to admit that I was terribly fascinated by seeing that Phi Mu was once at Pitt!
The ADPi house was on Bigelow Blvd, between the same streets as the Holiday Inn. As pledges, we had to go find the driveway
and there are still pieces of furniture in the ADPi suite that were in the house which are somewhat "revered".
