Recolonization!

[sigmaK619]

Ok, sorry to crash, but since I graduated from SDSU in '04 I know a little about the SDSU ADPis.

First of all, let me say that Eta Sigma had some WONDERFUL women! I got to know three of them when I was on Panhellenic in Fall of '03.

I also could relate to ADPi because SK has struggled a bit for the last few years as well. We had about 55-65 girls, when most of the chapters had 80-90. But, we always managed to stay "afloat."

I think it was hard for ADPi becuase they never had a permanent house that was like all the other chapter houses on campus (anyone from that chapter can correct me, I am just making some comments as an outsider). The first house they lived in was a single family home with apartments in the back of it. It was unlike all the other sororities which had HUGE houses (not apartments) that housed anywhere from 25-40 girls. They eventually moved out of there and then were kind of in limbo with no where to call home. They did end up moving into an old fraternity house and they made it look sooo cute inside, but I think all of the moving and uncertainty created some hardships.

I would love to see ADPi come back, but I know that there is a local (Alpha Epsilon) that is trying to merge with AEPhi and SDSU panhellenic (at least in 03-04) was highly against bringing on another national NPC group. But, that was before ADPi left, so I am not sure of the current status of that.

So all in all, my heart goes out to them. I don't know what I would do if SK closed. I hope maybe they can find a way to get a new house in sorority row and come back on next fall. Much love to ADPI from a SK!!
