Delta Phi Epsilon Announces Colonization at University of New Haven
Colonization Slated for January 2007
St. Louis, MO January 9, 2007 Delta Phi Epsilon is pleased to announce that the sorority has been invited to colonize at University of New Haven. Denise Curran, Director of Expansion, and Kathy Deppe, Alumnae & Chapter Development Director, visited the university in early December to meet with women of the interest group, the Greek Advisor, and local DPhiE alumnae.

Founded in 1920, UNH is a private, comprehensive university located ten minutes from downtown New Haven, Connecticut. The present enrollment is 2,300 undergraduates, of which 49% are female. Approximately 85% of the full-time undergraduate students live on campus. Enrollment of full-time undergraduate students has steadily increased over the past five years and continues to grow. The University states that it is in a transition phase, moving from being a traditionally commuter campus to a residential campus, and is in the process of building both a new student recreation center and a new academic building.

There are currently no NPC groups at the University of New Haven; however, there is one chartered NPHC chapter, one interested NPHC group, one NIC chapter, and five local sororities and fraternities on campus. Colonization will begin in January 2007 and more information regarding the process is forthcoming.
