That was right after the Civil War, and I doubt Southern women would have been very receptive to a bunch of Northern girls coming in to start a group. Most of the oldest of the Southern chapters started in the 1920s and 1930s, in my recollection.

I guess you'd have to ask irishpipes where she got the info.
Re: the 2004 thing, we weren't expanding a tremendous amount at that time (the NC State chapter does come to mind), but I think some of the other concerns you mention (difficulty of colonizing on those campuses and other major organizational stuff going on in Pi Phi then) could be factors. If you want to chat more about all that send me a PM. I did talk to some people "in the know" about it, as it were, at the time.
