At Bowling Green State U I would like to see Alpha Delta Pi return. They left sometime in the early 90's (I have no idea why) and have so many alumnae in the area. I'd also like to see ZTA come back (left in the early, early 80's). I don't think the campus will be open for expansion anytime soon. There are usually two to three chapters that struggle (still decent sized, just not as large as the rest).

I would say Ole Miss has a good representation of GLOs:

Pahellenic:
Alpha Omicron Pi
Chi Omega
Delta Delta Delta
Delta Gamma
Kappa Alpha Theta
Kappa Delta
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Pi Beta Phi
Phi Mu

(As posted in other forums, Zeta Tau Alpha, Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Zi Delta, and Delta Zeta all use to be at Ole Miss)

We also have a new awesome chapter of Omega Phi Alpha. They are doing very well at Ole Miss.

NPHC
Alpha Kappa Alpha
Sigma Gamma Rho
Zeta Phi Beta
Delta Sigma Theta

Fraternities
Alpha Phi Alpha
Alpha Phi Omega
Alpha Tau Omega
Beta Theta Pi
Chi Psi
Delta Psi / St. Anthony Hall
Delta Kappa Epsilon
Kappa Alpha
Kappa Alpha Psi
Kappa Sigma
Omega Psi Phi
Phi Beta Sigma
Phi Delta Theta
Phi Kappa Psi
Phi Kappa Tau
Pi Kappa Alpha
Sigma Alpha Epsilon
Sigma Chi
Sigma Nu
Sigma Phi Epsilon

My bad, I didnt look at the whole list, I was just looking for when UCF was chartered/closed. oops!

My campus has:

Sororities:
Alpha Epsilon Phi
Alpha Xi Delta
Sigma Delta Tau
Omega Phi Beta
Zeta Phi Beta
Kappa Phi Chi (Local)
Gamma Beta Delta (Local)
Alpha Sigma (Local)

Fraternities:
Alpha Epsilon Pi
Alpha Phi Delta
Zeta Beta Tau
Sigma Alpha Mu
Phi Sigma Chi (regional)
Phi Beta Sigma
Alpha Phi Alpha

I don't really have a particular preference for any particulary fraternitiy expanding on my campus but as far as sororities I would really like to see the locals go national. I heard one of our locals, Alpha Sigma, was founded with the intention of going Alpha Sigma Tau which had been on our campus before so I would be all up for that. Phi Sigma Sigma and DPhiE have all been pretty open about colonizing on commuter campus plus they have been on our campus before so I wouldn't mind seeing the locals affiliate with any of them.

When I went to Indiana University in the early-mid 90s, we had these NPC sororities:

Alpha Chi Omega
Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Epsilon Phi
Alpha Gamma Delta
Alpha Omicron Pi
Alpha Sigma Alpha
Alpha Xi Delta
Chi Omega
Delta Delta Delta
Delta Gamma
Delta Zeta
Gamma Phi Beta
Kappa Alpha Theta
Kappa Delta
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Phi Mu
Pi Beta Phi
Sigma Delta Tau
Sigma Kappa
Sigma Sigma Sigma
Zeta Tau Alpha

Since that time, Alpha Sigma Alpha, Sigma Kappa, and Sigma Sigma Sigma have all closed down. Alpha Omicron Pi was shut down by the University but has since recolonized.

The two I would have liked to have seen at IU were Phi Sigma Sigma, which I'd heard good things about, and Delta Phi Epsilon...I knew a couple girls who were in it at East Coast schools and they just loved it. I don't know if DPhiE ever had an IU chapter. I think Phi Sig was at IU for a little while before my time. Theta Phi Alpha once had a chapter at IU, also before my time. Alpha Sigma Tau has never been at IU.

I don't *think* Phi Sig has ever had a chapter at the main IU campus... we do have a chapter at one of the smaller campuses... it would be great to see us at the main IU campus or maybe Purdue....

little off topic...but my best friend goes to IU bloomington and i guess they call the fraternity Phi Sigma Kappa or Phi Kappa Sigma (not sure which it is, sorry) phi sigs...and the first time i heard her refer to 'phi sigs' as 'he' or 'him' i was like uhhhh what??? Then i realized they don't even have Phi Sigma Sigma, which is probably the reason hehe.

Phi Sigma Kappa is Phi Sig, Phi Kappa Sigma is Phi Kap

during homecoming weekend I was browsing through some chapter scrapbooks from years and years ago and discovered our campus once had many more sororoities that are no longer here. Each scrapbook contained newspaper articles about sorority rush and which women pledged each sorority.

Some of them include Alpha Xi Delta, Kappa Delta, Delta Gamma, Delta Phi Epsilon and a few others. I was really surprised to see those newspaper articles for each year because it more or less showed which sororities left, and which ones colonized and it was really interesting.

We currently have 6 NPCs on our campus: Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Phi, Chi Omega, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Pi Beta Phi & Zeta Tau Alpha.

I would love to see Delta Gamma, Phi Sigma Sigma, Phi Mu, Alpha Gamma Delta, Pi Beta Phi, or Alpha Phi on our campus. If you look in our parking lots you would swear we had a Phi Mu chapter here just from all the license plates!

For fraternities, I'd LOVE to see Lambda Chi Alpha here. We had them at the school I transferred from, and those guys were so sweet. I miss them a bunch!

The Pi Kappa Phi colony here is chartering next week! Congrats, guys!

texas*princess....i believe we also had delta zeta at UNT until 2000. I saw a delta zeta sticker on a sign walking to class the other day, and in our chapter room, we have a plaque with delta zeta, pi phi, and sigma alpha epsilon on it(i think its from greek week in 1999).

I think i would really like to see a delta delta delta chapter on campus.

For fraternities, i would like to see the pikes return, or maybe have fiji colonize.

With a ton of fraternities shutting down here, or being put on probation, though, im not sure when that will happen, if ever.

Our school has a fairly small Greek community:

Sororities:

Alpha Chi Omega
Delta Gamma
Gamma Phi Beta
Theta Phi Alpha

Fraternities:

Sigma Phi Epsilon
Alpha Delta Gamma
Phi Kappa Psi
Beggars (local)

NPHC:

Alpha Kappa Alpha
Alpha Phi Alpha
Phi Beta Sigma
Delta Sigma Theta
Kappa Alpha Psi

Our main problem with expansion is that we're right next to Tulane, and they already have several NPC sororities (I can think of Kappa Alpha Theta and Chi Omega off the top of my head.) I'd like to see a chapter of Delta Delta Delta, Phi Mu, or Pi Beta Phi here. I've heard rumors of a new sorority coming onto campus, but they're all unsubstantiated.

Delta Phi Epsilon's Delta Delta Chapter closed at IU in 1952. The cost of colonizing at a school like IU is so high, that I'd be frightened to see what we'd have to put out to get in there.

Small Group... but expanding too fast

My campus is going expansion crazy. Right now we have:

Sororities:
Alpha Phi
Gamma Phi Beta
Phi Mu

Alpha Sigma Alpha just colonized this fall semester.

Fraternities:
Pi Kappa Phi
Pi Lamba Phi
Sigma Phi Epsilon (just came on last January)

We were supposed to get Kappa Sig, but something fell through on their end.

Plus they're inviting another fraternity to come next semester and Zeta Tau Alpha sorority is coming in the fall.

Unfortunately we're a small school (5500 students) and recruitment on both ends is small (about 50 students).

ASA is just starting and already they'll be competing with ZTA before they can even take a deep breath.

Thankfully I'm graduating. Hopefully our younger members are on the ball.

Kappa Sig is supposed to be colonizing here too. I think they dropped out of IFC. Beacuse orginally they weren't going to be allowed because IFC turned them down, but I think their nationals dropped out of IFC. IFC here turned them down because our rush numbers have been down and we don't need another fraternity to drop everyone elses numbers. Plus, we have 8 fraternities as it is.
