Don't mean to be nosy, just interested in the development of the Greek system.
maybe, just MAYBE you have both orgs absorbe Alpha Sigma and then merge with Alpha Sigma Phi to make one big Alpha Sigma SuperFrarority!

i think the concept is awesome. the acronym cannot be beat. like, omigosh.

while we're at it, lets just combine Kappa Alpha and AKA. then you get Kappa Alpha Kappa Alpha Frarority, Inc. You know how many chapters that would be?! Freaking AWESOME. AND supermega diversity points. but thats obvi, right?

oldu, with all your statistic strategery (thanks W) you should realize this is the dumbest idea since the reformulation of Fruit Stripe gum.

AST and ASA share more campuses than almost any other 2 groups...it would create chaos in so many Greek systems I don't even want to think about it.

Why don't Chi Omega and Alpha Chi Omega merge into one giant sorority called OMEGA, then they would be really really REALLY huge!! Plus you could have a cute mascot of an owl sitting on a lyre!!

Seriously, I can't think of anything more offensive than to come into a group's forum and suggest a merger. Are you really modorney? Or are you just his girlfriend or boyfriend or something in the Pat spectrum (yes, I went there).

That is eerily similar. And I love how he, as an Acacia, a fraternity with less houses, suggests that ZetaPsi consider a merger but makes no mention about his own "small" fraternity needing to do the same.

You know, KD and AEPhi both share Green and White as colors - that makes them the EXACT SAME. They should merge.

Sigma Kappa and Tri Sigma both share the Sigma and their badge is the same triangle shape...they should merge, too.

Delta Zeta and Alpha Kappa Alpha should totally merge as well...PINK & GREEN POWER!!! They can be in both the NPC and the NPHC. It wouldn't cause ANY conflict, I promise.

I feel like they should also merge with Sigma Alpha, the agricultural sorority, to spice everything up.

Nah, merge Sigma Alpha and Sigma Alpha Iota. Because music and agriculture have so much in common!
