Anyway, I don't think it was meant as offensive, although that was my first reaction too.

Correct me if I'm wrong on this! I now think our Auburn chapter is thriving. I personally think it's because we are colonizing like CRAZY and we're building a stronger presence in the south.

You are exactly right, Gamma Phi Beta at Auburn has had strong rushes in the recent years! They were able to snap up some girls who were "cut" and they were great girls, who have really helped the chapter thrive. It only takes one pledge class to turn around a chapter, either up or down!

I am so glad to hear that, ladies! We too, have re-colonized at Auburn after a try in the 70's that did not go as well as National hoped, and now we have a great group of girls. I think that Auburn has grown, and more girls from all around the country are finding out that it's a nice place to go to school - and that the opportunities there are growing as well!
