Yes, DG is presenting next Monday, not this Thursday.

As far as I know, Panhellenic will invite just one of the three groups to come on this fall. I believe a new set of presentations will be made for the sorority coming on in the fall of 2010. Ultimately, yes, there will be two new sororities.

Whichever sorority comes on campus this fall will have a 2-year lease on the SDT house. After that, ground will be broken on new houses for sororities -- not necessarily just for the two new ones. If XYZ decides they want to build a new house, then colony A could opt to lease or buy XYZ's house.

Of the three presenting, one will be selected to colonize for fall 08 and one for fall 10. These are the only presentations that will be given. No one will re-present for the fall 10 colonization. So basically the chapters will vote on which organization is ready to jump in right now and colonize and which org. will be ready in a couple of years. Only one of the sororities presenting will not be selected, most likely because the UA chapters do not feel they will be able to succeed at UA now or with a few years of preparations.

That is the smartest way to do it. Good job, Bama!

I'm going to play devil's advocate...what if in between this time and 2010 the sorority selected for 2010 drastically revamps their pledge program or merges with another group or something else of that ilk? Does Bama have the option to say "hey, we want to look at that other group again"?

This applies to every time this happens at a school, not just Bama.

Thanks for clarifying that!

Thank you Bamagirl! I will edit my previous posts to be accurate.

Man, I've been giving out bad info all over the place. My sincerest apologies to everyone and I've corrected my posts. It wasn't intentional. I'd been told one thing only to find out things had changed and my info was outdated. Guess I should stop talking until I'm absolutely sure of the facts.

i hope you don't stop sharing info. with us! i don't know what it is, but it seems to me that sometimes information desimination from panhellenic offices is not high on their priority list and they don't do the best job of keeping people informed.
