I agree with everything 33 said. A new sorority can't come to campus until the campus decides to expand. Go talk to the Director of Greek Life at your university. If there is no such person, there should be a Dean of Student Activities who oversees all of the student organizations. You can address your concerns with him/her.

Although, you have not yet been through recruitment so you really are not qualified to say that the existing sororities don't meet your needs. You need to give yourself and the sororities an opportunity to meet before making a snap judgment like that.

Starting a sorority is an extremely time-consuming endeavor. Even with the minimum start-up requirements met it can take years for a sorority to colonize on your campus-- long after you have packed up and gone off to the real world.

College is 4 years (give or take a year) of your life-- see what opportunities currently exist at the university and get involved with them before you try to bring something brand-new. You can channel your time and effort into being a great student and helping build an existing organization further; rather than struggling with an uphill battle to bring a new organization into being.
