Schools with many former GLOs
I was reading the colonization/recolonization thread and thought I'd check to see who was formerly at my alma matter, Lawrence University (WI). I was shocked to see that there are more formers than currents in the sorority area! 3 currents with 6 formers, all really great NPC orgs.
Are there any other schools out there that seem to eat GLOs for breakfast? And lunch and dinner? Or is this highly unusual?

Lawrence now has 3 sororities (Kappa, Theta, and DG) and 5 fraternities (Phi Delt, Phi Tau, Beta, Sig Ep, and Delt) to serve a 1300 student population. I doubt the Greek system is strong enough to consider expansion at this time, but I would LOVE to see any of these groups recolonize, especially since they were all founded so many years ago. Interesting that they seemed to fall in pairs, though- 35/39, 68/69, 80/83.
Former Sororities:
1908 - 1969 Alpha Delta Pi
1914 - 1935 Phi Mu
1918 - 1968 Kappa Delta
1921 - 1939 Zeta Tau Alpha
1930 - 1980 Alpha Chi Omega
1940 - 1983 Pi Beta Phi
Former Fraternity:
1958 - 1988 Phi Gamma Delta
