UC Merced Greek Life??

[LucyKKG]

I heard that a fraternity was starting (maybe search the colonies thread) and I know some girls are trying to bring an NPC chapter there. Not sure how that's going.

ETA: It's Sigma Chi

There is none at this time, but according to this article (I think it's from last year), it's something they're looking into:

I just did a presentation to the groups that are trying to organize on campus. None have officially been recognized by the campus or National Organizations as colonies, but there are 4-5 initial interest groups.

Some of the chapters that they are trying to start are:

Sigma Chi -
Sigma Alpha Epsilon
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Kappa Delta Chi
Delta Delta Delta

If I get any further information on them i will update.

Hey everyone!

Here's an update:

The Epsilon Kappa Chapter of Delta Delta Delta was just recently installed over January 30th thru the 31st.

Kappa Delta Chi has broken up and decided to go in search of another sorority (after being colonized) due to little support from NALFO.

Delta Gamma has been colonized.

Kappa Kappa Gamma has been colonized.

Sigma Chi has been colonized.

And, Sigma Alpha Epsilon has been colonized.

Woot woot for greek life at UCM!

Can't believe I missed this before...WHAAAAAT?

I've never heard of an individual chapter (or organization) disband because of lack of support from NALFO. There must be more to the story. Most of our orgs. were here before NALFO and did fine without it (just my opinion).

I've spoken to a few KDChi about this and you're right...it wasn't a NALFO thing.

(I don't know how that would even work -- NALFO affecting an org like that)
