creighton?

sorry to barge in on your forum.

I'm an alpha phi alumna from creighton university and was friends with several theta phi's there. i just looked at the creighton site and saw that the chapter is no longer there. when did this happen? any details? (i know you can't share too much with outsiders, but i know it was creighton and panhel that made us leave there too.)

sad to see the chapter go.

No worries about crashing the forum, I'm new here myself.

I haven't heard anything about the chapter at Creighton closing. According to the national TPA website, the chapter is still open and if you follow the link for Greek Awards at Creighton, it looks like the chapter won a few distinctions this past semester. I hope it's just an oversight on the part of the university and the chapter is still open!

I'll keep my eyes open for any further news.

I made an inquiry, this was the responce:

"Creighton University has chosen to suspended Chi from the campus for no
less than two academic years. Chi will not be recognized before August
2008, and then only if the University is satisfied with the progress the
chapter has made.

The administration took this action in response to several alleged
violations of the Student Code of Conduct. As an alumna of Chi chapter,
you will be receiving a letter outlining all that has occurred.

Please know that we have a plan for re-entry to Creighton. With the
cooperation of the collegians and with the help of some dedicated
alumnae, we will be able to accomplish this goal."

Awww, that's so sad. I'd always heard that Chi was a strong chapter. From the look of your post it sounds like NO is behind the chapter on getting things worked out.

Good luck!!

To update, according to TPA's website and the Creighton website, Theta Phi Alpha is recognized again! Congrats ladies, way to beat the deadline!

Yay! Congrats to Chi and all who worked so hard to see their amazing chapter become recognized again!!!

Update: According to InCircle, our Chi chapter had a very successful recruitment to kick off their re-recognization! They finished off recruitment with 27 new pledge sisters!!! (They more than doubled the size of the chapter!)

That's great! The pictures on inCircle are adorable. Do you have any idea what average chapter size is at Creighton? Hopefully we'll be back in that ballpark soon!

Fabulous job ladies
