New Colonies or Re-establishments?

[hazelle]

Hey howdy sisters!! Have been wondering how the reestablishment of Xi Chapter at Kentucky went?? Can't believe we had to give up our house due to low membership only to go to open bidding without our lovely home!! Meanwhile, congrats to the new sisters at WPI....Alpha Xi Delta sisterhood forever and friendship never ending!!

Xi love from an Xi initiate

So I'm really confused with the last post. I was not aware there was any current reestablishment of Xi chapter. I was part of the reestablishment that was attempted in 2001 and I was there when we decided to close in Dec 2003 and I still have a few sisters still at the University of Kentucky. So if anyone knows something about this please PM me.

AXiD is not listed as a chapter on the Greek Life website http://www.uky.edu/StudentAffairs/Greek/chap.htm. But I wonder why Nationals still has the Xi chapter listed as active on the website.

There is no current attempt to re-establish Xi chapter. Not sure where that one came from. The chapter is listed on the website because National Council has not relinquished the chapter's charter. Any further discussion should be by PM.

And BTW, I'm told WPI has 52 now ... one NM just couldn't make the initial pledging.

Hi you'all!! I am an Xi initiate from Kentucky and an alum in Louisville told me on line that Xi chapter was having some kind of open rush in the Student Center back in August. I emailed National to see if they needed alum help but heard nothing. So, I thought you'all would know the latest. Knew that 321 Columbia Terrace was another sorority's home now, but the thought of our chapter resurfacing took some of that pain away. Wonder why the rumor went all the way to Louisville?? Sorry for the confusion. But love having so many sisters on this site to share our sisterhood!!

Any updates on how our two colonies are doing?

In an email received this morning...



Dear Monmouth Colony Members,

I apologize for this mass e-mail, however, there is some critical
information that needs to be relayed to you and I don't feel it can wait
until your next meeting. I am not certain if Beth has relayed to you
that National Council met this past weekend. As usual, the progress of
the Monmouth University Colony was discussed. It is clear that the time
has come to make a determination as to what the future of the colony
will be. As such a decision has been made...
































...INSTALLATION has been approved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Working within the confines of both the colony's schedule and our
National President's schedule, Installation has been set for April 22nd.
Pre-Initiation activities will begin on the evening of April 21st. Many
more details will follow as to times and locations. For now, however,
please block these two dates on your calendar. For Initiation, all of
you will need to wear white badge attire (including white shoes). I
only tell you this now because white "Quill clothes" can be a bit hard
to come by.

More details will come through Beth. Congratulations, ladies!

Fraternally,

Gretchen
