Three new Centennial Colonies

I just got a letter today "announcing" the three Centennial Colonies!

+++++++++++++

The National Council of Delta Zeta Sorority is very proud to announce three Centennial Colonies to be established in the 2002-2003 academic year.

University of Florida: Pi Alpha Colony
Florida is a highly competitive University of 47,000 students in Gainesville, Florida and known as the home of the "Gators". We are joining fifteen NPC groups with average chapter size of 156 women. Colonization will take place after formal recruitment in the fall of 2002.

University of Hartford: Pi Beta Colony
Hartford is a competitive, private University of 4,000 students in West Hartford, Connecticut. On May 4, 2002 an interest group of 25 exceptional women were pledged to Delta Zeta by the Beta Gamma women from the University of Connecticut. Chapter total is 50 and there are six NPC groups on campus. Additional recruitment will take place in the fall of 2002.

California State University, Northridge: Pi Gamma Colony
Northridge is a competitive University of 31,000 students located twelve miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles. The San Fernando Valley Alumnae Chapter has been supporting the National Center for Deafness on the Northridge Campus for the past 20 years. Average chapter size is 83 and there are five NPC groups. Colonization will take place after formal recruitment in the fall of 2002.

Our thanks to the local alumnae and local collegians, the National Extension Chairman and the Extension Teams for their superior job in presenting Delta Zeta Sorority to these College Panhellenics. We are thrilled to be invited to join the Greek communities on these outstanding campuses.
