I'm not sure where this came from but I can assure you this group was not the colony for Zeta Xi. The chapter was colonized in fall of 2000 with no local or interest group in place. I should know - I was there when we made the expansion presentation in the Spring of 2000 and that fall when the colonization was done. There was no local or interest group involved. Since I was their first ATC (ABC back then), I know this for a fact.

You are so right, Titchou. I think it was the way I read the chapter history section from Anchors Online to mean that the same group was the one petitioning Delta Gamma over and over:

During the 1984-1985 academic year, the UAB Panhellenic contacted Delta Gamma for serious consideration in expansion on the campus.

In 1985 Zeta Pi, a local sorority, organizes on the campus of UAB and then approaches Delta Gamma for affiliation. Delta Gamma rejects this offer.

In January 1989, again, the university offers an expansion on campus to Delta Gamma. Again, Delta Gamma must reject this offer due to a full expansion schedule.

And yet again, in January 1990, the UAB Office of Student Life contacts Delta Gamma about a possible expansion. Delta Gamma responds favorably and discussion between Delta Gamma and the university begins.

In the spring of 1990, representatives from Delta Gamma began presentations on the campus of the University of Alabama, Birmingham. These representatives included Barb Probst, Patsy Martens, Kim Martin, Cathy Waggoner, and Beverly Harper.

In June of 1990, Delta Gamma was chosen to colonize at UAB in the fall of 1990.

It's so amazing the resources we have here; someone knows this historical information to be incorrect because she was there! Thanks, Titchou, for correcting me.
