Rush at Georgia Southern!

[KSUViolet06]

I'm just curious- What's the status of KKG there? Were they closed for good, or will they be recolonizing?

RE KKG: All I know is that they just closed the chapter in May.

I just talked to someone at Georgia Southern and some PNMs were released from recruitment because they walked across the street to some of the fraternity houses and came back saying which sororities were "bad" and "good" according to the fraternities.

And, no, I don't know how many girls there were, but if I do, I'll post.

The university has experienced tremendous growth over the past few years (from about 10,000 students to almost 17,000).

Recruitment numbers were way up this year. Usually only about 300 register. This year there were more than 400.

It is my understanding that Kappa is coming back. Hopefully they will return or they will consider expanding in the next few years. It would be nice to see some of the closed groups come back strong.

Oh no! Tell me the PNMs didn't do that! And good for Panhellenic releasing them because that can lead to freshman releasing sororities. I hope that pH has the fortitude to stand strong if the parents come screaming to them about the mistreatment of their darling daughters.

I think I know the answer but I'm not sure so I'll ask anyway, lol.

If a pnm is released for breaking a ph rule, does she have to wait until next year to try again?

[okracoke]

Pmn's were not released by Panhellenic for this. Panhellenic knew that some pmn's walked over to fraternity house (no conversations with men were known about) and addressed the issue, but did not release them.

Good. Thanks for the correction.

DZ was founded in 1968 and was still active when the 1991 version was published.

I started my freshman year at Georgia SOuthern in 1990 and I would have to say that Bairds is incorrect. Delta Zeta was not active in the 1990-1991 school year. They were brought to campus in an attempt to recolonize in the Spring of 1991, but they did not. My roomate went to the informational meetings. GSU did not have another sorority come to campus until 1994 when Alpha Xi Delta recolonized (and closed again a few years later).

The last I heard KKG was planning to reorganize (or whatever the correct term is) basically all of the current members would go Alum and they would start over.

I was a Freshman at Southern in Fall 1994. At that time neither Chi O or DZ was on campus. AZD was participating in their first formal recruitment.

I haven't heard any official numbers yet, but on a personal note, three girls from my town went Phi Mu, one ADPi, and one KD-great sororities all.
