russell-It was my perception that when a university decides to open for expansion, all NPC sororities are notified. Therefore, while fraternities are making calls and scoping things out to FIND expansion opportunities, most NPC expansions follow NPC policies of extension.
We will be chartering our newest chapter of D Phi E at Drexel University in the Winter quarter. When Drexel voted to expand, all of the NPC sororities that were not already on campus were notified of their desire to expand, and 9 NPC sororities expressed interest. From those 9 sororities, 3 were selected to present. Two of the three have paid staff members to deal with extension. We do not. As is procedure, our organization sent a paid staff member, an international executive council member, the director of expansion and local volunteers to do the presentation. We were unanimously invited to come to their campus. I don't think that's an exception either. We have a great expansion presentation put together by volunteers and paid staff members. But D Phi E carefully selects expansion opportunities that we can be successful in. We probably wouldn't even express interest in a school such as, Indiana, where everyone has million dollar houses and lots of deep pockets, because we know, at this time, that's not our market. But we continue to grow in mid-size greek systems or newly forming greek systems where we are competitive.
PsychTau, you have a great idea there in the information sharing ideas. It'd be interesting to see what was actually shared though.
