Harvard doesn't recognize fraternities and sororities either. There are chapters of Kappa Alpha Theta, Delta Gamma, and Kappa Kappa Gamma is colonizing - so that means either those 3 sororities are on the "will colonize if unrecognized" list, or they made an exception because it's Harvard.

You are absolutely right, aephi alum, Harvard doesn't recognize its Greeks. I learned from one of our new members who is a tour guide for Harvard that she is required to answer "No" when potential students and their families ask if there are sororities and fraternities.
No exceptions were made in our case in colonizing at Harvard. We also have unrecognized chapters at Yale and Trinity (in Hartford, CT), and there must be others outside New England. More important extension criteria, as I understand the process, are demand at the college (number of potential new members unplaced after formal recruitment) and area alumnae support.
We'll install the new chapter, Eta Theta, in two weeks -- yay!
