EC (hey, welcome back!) makes some good points. Incidentally, Kansas State has a recent news release about its Beta Theta Pi chapter, which recently earned some of Beta's highest awards:

I agree that K-State has a generally well-respected Greek system. On one point, though, I'd part company with EC a little -- I'd be cautious about encouraging NPC sorority expansion there quite yet.

Despite having quite a few old, strong and well-regarded sorority chapters, Kansas State can, I think, be a pretty brutal place when it comes to new sororities on the block. In the past 35 years these sororities have been colonized, chartered, and then closed:

Delta Zeta

Sigma Sigma Sigma

Alpha Gamma Delta.

In addition, one sorority closed in the 1990s, but has returned. In all cases, the primary reason for the closures was low numbers.

And, as EC mentioned, ZTA was there, but closed around 1940/41, a victim of the Depression, most likely.
