Where would you like to see your sorority/fraternity colonize/recolonize?

[Smile_Awhile]

I'd love to see Alpha Chi recolonize our Delta Rho (U of Arkansas) chapter, just so we'd have an Arkansas chapter again. I've had so many people give me weird looks when I say I'm an Alpha Chi. "Is that the same thing as Chi O?"

[moe.ron]

Buffalo State - recolonize my chapter darn it.

[chitownxo]

If I had my way, I'd like to see us colononize/recolonize at....

Lake Forest
Northern Illinois
Eastern Illinois
Emory
Georiga Tech
USC (University of Southern California)
U Mass
Minnesota
University of North Dakota
University of Montana
Anywhere in NY or NJ.

Chi O already has a chapter at UMass, unless you're talking about the Lowell, Dartmouth or Boston campuses.

I've said this in the Kappa forum before, but San Jose State! They actually just selected Alpha Xi Delta to colonize there. I'm from SJ, and I've met a number of women who were members of that chapter. I really don't think we could handle it any time soon though considering how many CA chapters we've gotten recently (Santa Cruz, Santa Clara, and Merced).

Also: George Mason because one of my key sisses transferred there.

I would love to see Phi Mu, Pi Beta Phi, Zeta Tau Alpha, and Kappa Alpha Theta back at Pitt.

When the sororities were forced to move onto campus, Phi Mu, Pi Beta Phi & Zeta Tau Alpha seem to have disappeared. I never heard what happened to them at Pitt.

[PKT4LIFE]

USC (So Cal) our Pi chapter. I hear "something" is in the works. The issue is housing.

Cleveland State: I've had recent conversations with their OGL and our National. More to come...

[KDKells]

I really want to see us come back to the northern Midwest/Great Plains/Rockies where we aren't currently.

University of Wisconsin- Madison
University of Minnesota
Illinois State University
Northern Illinois University
Monmouth College
South Dakota State University
University of Wyoming
Montana State University
University of Montana

As for new chapters, hmm. Anywhere in the area honestly.

I would love to see KD back at the University of Oklahoma. I was so sad when I heard the chapter had closed.

Ha - I love it. I was reading through the thread and thinking about doing the exact same thing, but then I got to your post and thought "clemsongirl beat me to it!"

Michigan (Beta)
Barnard/Columbia (Iota)
WUSTL -- recolonizing this coming year (Phi)
Oregon State -- next in stack (Chi)

That leaves:
Goucher (Zeta)
Stanford (Mu)
Hollins (Upsilon)

So, I've got to go with Stanford as my #1 "wish" since that's the only viable option to round out the single letter chapters.

I would also like to see more SEC chapters, more Ivy League chapters, and Texas. And Washington and Lee, but I think they're at optimal capacity and I don't see that changing.

DITTO!

Edit, because I spend too much time thinking about these things. My general categories are "Top 50ish schools", SEC, and well-known schools in major conferences:

Harvard
Yale
Princeton
MIT
Stanford (Mu)
U of Chicago
U Penn
Dartmouth
Johns Hopkins
Cornell
Vanderbilt (Alpha Theta)
Wake Forest
Tufts
UNC
NYU
Georgia Tech
UC San Diego
UC Davis
Tennessee (Gamma Xi)
Arkansas
LSU (Gamma Lambda)
Ole Miss
Mississippi State
Baylor
Texas (Alpha Zeta)
West Virginia University (Alpha Pi)
Arizona State (Beta Kappa)

Just a quick correction that Chi Omega was colonized at the University of Rochester, not Rochester Institute of Technology!
