Has the chapter been dormant? For how long?

I don't think they actually closed the chapter. They didn't participate in formal in the fall, and they gave all the girls alumnae status and just now started the recolonization. I'm an Alpha Gam at the University of Michigan, and we tailgated with our sisters there for the OSU/U of M game in the fall.

My sorority sister's younger sister goes to OSU and she joined Alpha Gam at recruitment this January. She absolutely LOVES the chapter and her new sisters! Everytime she calls her sister she has something great to say about her awesome new sorority. Good job ladies!

Congrats!

Funny how we have two threads at the same time showing the right and wrong ways to do a re-organization. THIS would be the right way....

Congrats to AGD! Scary how much national exposure the other one got. Jay Leno even hit on it in his monologue (something about the girls who got kicked out started their own sorority, Delta Delta Burke) Dumb!

Especially since the whole Delta Burke brouhaha was like 15 years ago and half the audience probably doesn't know/remember what he was talking about.

That's wonderful! Good luck to the chapter at tOSU.

In response to IvySpice:

This is all very recent. Their numbers had been dropping severely over the past couple years, so from my information, they gave the remaining girls alumni status and are starting the chapter over. They aren't participating in formal recruitment but will pick it up again in the spring.

I really wish them the best of luck-- the Alpha Gams I know are some of the sweetest girls!

So have the remaining girls graduated or will they still be on campus as alums while the chapter starts over? I think that would be really hard on the women who were made alums even while they are undergrad.

Most are graduating in May and will be on campus as alums for the one semester. Our International Officers are working with them very closely to get an active Junior Circle in the area (alumnae club for women under 35) and getting them involved as very active alumnae members. They ARE sweet girls and they've worked incredibly hard and are very valued members of our Fraternity. It's not the best collegiate experience to be in a struggling chapter, so hopefully their alumnae experience will be good.
