The largest fraternity and sorority on your campus

[honeychile]

ROTFL!!!!!!

I know AT LEAST TEN WVU ADPis who would kill to have them back on campus!!

If you're not having many people drop out of rush, it does sound as if your Panhellenic should consider a new colony.

I'd like them to come back too. Who knows, I've heard through the grapevine we may a sorority leaving soon.......

The bad thing about expansion at WVU....


The sororities here arent always *ahem* welcoming to new groups.

Coramoor, a little off topic, but did you guys end up teaming up with chi o this year for homecoming due to alpha phi's "unfortunate circumstance"?

Yeah, Panhellenic put us with them and sigma chi They also tried to make us do Mountaineer Week with the same pairings. It ended up that us and sigma chi were paired with pi phi for that.

That's true there isn't anywhere to put houses unless WVU wipes out Sunnyside and so generously builds a few (as if that would happen).

If you look around there are a lot of houses in the area between where the Beta house is to the north, Price street to the west and frat row to the east that used to be fraternity or sorority houses. I just wonder if the university owns them, or if they only have some sort of contract to rent them.

Talking to alumni, there used to be like 20+ sororities and just as many fraternities twenty or thirty years ago...

I'm all about bringing more chapters on campus-although I've heard too many guys and girls bitch that another chapter would take away from their numbers...I strongly disagree with that. I think that the more chapters here, the more we exposure we will get and it will bring more people in. It's hard to convince people when they are only out for themselves though.

I'd like to get KD back. And ADPi. I think a chapter of Alpha Gamma Delta would do well here because I always see girls wearing AGD shirts around campus.

I think the biggest problem with rush is the girls rushing KNOW what sororities are considered "good." And if they don't think they will get a "good" house they will drop out and rush again in spring or COB the "good" houses. Whenever I rushed I knew a lot of girls that did just that. A few of them COB'ed and are now my sisters.

But that was back in the day Fall "02 haha.

Yeah I definitely can't see WVU wiping out Sunnyside considering it houses like five million students! Thank God it's remodeling Sunnyside though, what an eyesore.

I do know some girls only want to rush the "good" sororities. I think another problem might be the stereotypes that come with all the sororities. I had a few friends rush this year and I predicted where they would end up, and for the most part it was true. Stereotypes are always hard to break.

I've seen a few AGD shirts around campus too. Did they used to be at WVU?

I think it would be a great idea to bring more chapters to WVU, too. I know we're encouraged to wear our letters a lot early during the first semester I guess to kinda get the word out to freshmen that greeks are around on campus.

I can see how people would think another chapter would take away from their numbers, and it might like the first 2 years or something. But I think the more sororities and fraternities, the more people would want to join. The more greeks, the better!

Maybe I should try to get on Panhellenic next year..

I hate to say just becuz I don't want to start something since it was in no way, shape or form confirmed with anyone who would know for sure.....

Really?? Wow.....

I wonder who all was there. I know KD and ADPi used to be there. And I think that ZTA was as well. I wanna know who the others were!

Understandable. Just in case it was alpha phi (pretty sure you mightve heard whats going on with us), it isnt us, we're here to stay!

Good I was wondering how that was going. Like I said I had to go alum so I'm really out of the loop.

Sort of off topic.....but do you have a sister named Jen V. that's from Fairmont?

Believe it or not, I've heard the same three mentioned! But then again, one of my favorite ADPi friends locally went to WVU.

And the fact that WVU alpha phi (for one) didn't know that ADPi had been on campus means that there's been enough time elapse for any leftover resentment or other negative problems to be around.

Now, don't quote me on this, but I believe these are the standings as far as Sac State (CSU, Sacramento) goes:

Fraternities
1.Tau Kappa Epsilon
2.Kappa Sigma
3.Sigma Phi Epsilon

Sororities
1.Alpha Phi
2.Alpha Chi Omega
3.Delta Gamma
