There was a Stanford recolonization in the 70's - Kappa deuteron - but they seem to have gone down again. [ All sororities were kicked off campus in the 40's after one girl killed herself when she didn't get a bid.] From what I remember the area rep. said Stanford does not really welcome Greeks wholeheartedly and keeps them on a short leash.
On the SU website the last recruitment calendar is from 2007! yikes.
Greekchat is reporting that Alpha Phi has been chosen to colonize at Worcester Polytech Institute. Congrats to Alpha Phi. Don't know the timeline involved.
"Alpha Phi will be joining the WPI fraternity and sorority campus community in winter 2011, and upon installation the colony will become Alpha Phi's Iota Omicron chapter."

Believe what your want. Now that SU allows female greeks again, they like to whitewash their own sexist history: Male frats were allowed to stay while female frats were closed in 1944. I have never heard of another school that only removed one sex's groups. I will try to find the old newspaper where I read they characterized the sisters as being 'devisive to womanhood and leading to the death of a young (non-pledged) student' as their justification for closing them all.
Bucknell (recolonization)
IUP (recolonization)
NYU - for selfish reasons; I went to grad school there
UMass Amherst
Drexel
Auburn - hey, a girl can dream!
