Appalachian says YES to expansion!!
I wanted to let you all know that last week the Panhellenic Council at Appalachian unanimously voted in favor of expansion! Of course it is much to early to know who will be presenting, or exactly when presentations will take place. To the best of my knowledge (which being out of school now over a year is very limited), presentations will take place this semester, and colonization will begin during the fall semester. I am very proud of all the growth at my Alma Mater!! Let's go Mountaineers!!

Congrats Appalachian! I think this is a terrific time for expansion there. My best friend is an alum and he's told me that the number of applications for admission has gone up substantially this year, thanks to the recognition brought through the big win by the football team over Michigan and the three straight national championships! Appalachian is growing so it's great that Greek life can grow along with it!

No idea.
I can't speak for the guys, but I wouldn't be surprised. They have already colonized two new fraternities (DTD and ASPhi) in the past three years!

Ohhhh exciting! My BIL is a recent Alumnus of App State and DH and I went down there for his graduation last spring. Boone is a BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL place, except for all that dang fog LOL! We almost drove off the side of a mountain without realizing it. I didnt want to leave when I was there. The campus is just breathtaking. YAY for App State and whatever wonderful NPC org that will have the priveledge of having a new chapter at such an awesome university!

I know that its up to the school and the orgs to submit their package for consideration and all that. But I just need to put it out there that I would really like to see Alpha Xi Delta at least submit to be considered. I know that there is a lot of focus right now for the recol of the Kappa Chapter in Illinois, which is a huge undertaking, but I think that App State is a great school and AXiD has done a lot of expansion in NC over the last few years and this would be a great addition.
off my soap box now.

Sororities will be presenting later this month, and the final decision will be made before the end of the semester.

yeah.  i had to change my name for the recruitment story due to the obvious knowledge of where i was...i posted before asking for advice with this name and i didn't think about it before i considered that i might post my recruitment story. so i had to change it. it would've made everything very, very, very non-anonymous.
edit: i also just realized that i posted earlier on this one with ausguals. dangit. i stink.
