I think that you need to find out which sororities tried to get onto your campus and see if one of them will work with you, if you start a local chapter. The universities are usually not adverse to starting locals. Then if you get your numbers up to the same size as the recognized sororites, your chances of getting a colony started are very good-because you have already proven that you have the numbers and are not taking away members from the recognized one. Give it a try. The numbers from pref night may not reflect very well on the numbers who really wanted to join and were dropped along the way. That number could be very high and is a valid argument for starting another sorority, because those already there are not taking everyone who started out interested in joining a sorority. Of course, some of them could be people who changed their minds about it being right for them, but you can tell from the statistics, usually. Have the Student Affairs office help you with analyzing the statistics.
