Somebody needs to hose down this thread....

Russ,

As Director of Expansion for DPhiE, I find it unbelievable that you are so knowledgable about our DB. It must be a valuable talent to look into cyberspace and see that there are not 100 alumnae but just 87 in the geo-select of 323xx. Well done! I am sure you are well versed on this university but you truly did make a lot of GC people feel like crap, including one of my sorority's most valuable NO. So, shame on you for that.

As for the opportunity of expansion here, clearly all the groups who sent packets are interested and most, if not all are dormant there. Whether any group has more "assets" than another will be mulled over by the PH. I am a bit appalled at how "open" this process is for all to see on greekchat. The open campus style of it is even a little odd (viewing of all the packets) but it is even more open here. I am also very uneasy at the information about GL that was definitely not clearly stated in the NPC Bulletin and could definitely sway an invited group to decline the invitation to present, if extended. Missing information from a university or panhel can definitely change a groups perception of an opportunity. I was just invited to present my sorority to another NPC expansion opportunity campus in FL. After gaining additional information post-invitation, I withdrew my sorority's interest in presenting. It happens.

Any group who gets invited to present should be thrilled and my best wishes to go out to all. I hope that the sister of GL as well as the hundreds of unaffiliated women find a home in a wonderful new sorority, now or in the future.

Denise
