Caryn, which chapters are you referring to here? Sorry, I can't seem to figure it out...

For instance, the Alpha Omicron chapter is closed and listed.

2 thoughts on that...

1--your chapter closed fairly recently, and i know that the website isn't kept up to date to the extent that it probably should be... maybe it is just an accident because it hasn't been updated yet? or are there other chapters that have closed some time ago and are still listed on the site as well?

2--your chapter didn't close for disciplinary reasons, so maybe that has something to do with why it is still listed? theorhetically, your chapter COULD reactivate at any time... so maybe that is part of the consideration in including a chapter on the list...

very interesting, though, regardless...

sorry to crash - but do you mean if you guys have a chapter that closed for disciplinary reasons, it can never open ever again?

Please let me know if that's too nebby of a thing to ask.

As far as I am away, the only way of not allowing a chapter to re-open would be if the school wasn't around any longer.

My chapter was closed almost a year ago, I'd like to think that it would be off the website by then..and even still that is a list of chartered chapters, not the list of current active chapters she was looking at. I would think it's morel iekly they were colonies that failed, for whatever reason, to become a chapter.

This is in response to beach-keene's request for information on chapter names for SDT. I am a long-time alum and this is what I was told about some of these names:

Alpha Alpha never used
Alpha Gamma was skipped because of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority (someone thought it would be too confusing)
Beta Sigma chapter was at Herbert H. Lehman college in NY (inactive)

You can contact Ann Braly (abraly@sdt.com) at the National Office for further information.

Hey Paula, welcome to GC! It's great to have another Sig Delt around!

Do you know why Alpha Alpha was never used? As for Alpha Gamma, I've never heard of any other sorority skipping it, but I guess it makes some sense.

Beta Sigma was probably closed during the 1970's sweep of all Greeks from CUNY campuses, but it seems odd to me that it isn't listed. Do you have any info on the others?
