Oh my gosh. Congrats to Alpha Gamma Delta. They have had a few tough years. Glad to see they reached quota.

This might read like a little bit of a backhanded compliment unless people know you're an Alpha Gamma Delta.

And I'm happy for the chapter too!

txcutie and Kitemom- rumors count for nothing. I'm going to assume that you simply don't know how Panhellenic expansion works.

In the scenario you describe, KD would have to chose to go off-campus, and Panhellenic would then have to decide to expand. If they decided to expand, all NPC groups would be notified and ALL of those interested would have the chance to submit interest packets. Then, and only then, the current Panhellenic Council would vote on several (usually 3 ) to present - and then vote for one of the three. If KD is planning to go off-campus, they would 1.) probably not plan it years in advance - if the situation warrants going off-campus, they would do it now. 2.) have probably not gone through rush and 3.)made an announcement. Only the KD chapter knows for sure, but spreading rumors like this one make it harder for KD to compete, so I really wish it would stop.
No matter how badly DG would like to return, it is not up to them. It would be up to Baylor Panhellenic to 1.) decide on expansion and 2.) decide on DG.
Incidently, DG does NOT improve their chances by spreading rumors like this. Please, in the name of Panhellenic unity, do not spread rumors and hearsay.

eta - txcutie, are you a new member of a sorority at Baylor?

My point is not whether or not KD is struggling - obviously they are - my point is that only they will decide what to do about it. It may be they chose to reorganize, or to go off campus. Spreading the rumor that they are about to go off campus, when there is no word from KD, makes it tougher for them to recruit.Therefore, in the absence of any word from KD headquarters, panhellenically minded sorority members should not spread a rumor - which is what it is. If they are indeed mistreating new members, those former members should report it to headquarters.

You'd be surprised at how a chapter can bounce back - those of us with extensive experience with different chapters can attest to that. (In fact, a time when A D Pi numbers at Baylor were down is referenced. They made quota this year, so they've obviously done it.) But maybe KD won't. In the meantime, they need to be able to recruit without having to live down some whisper campaign that might make pnms think twice about pledging them. The pnms can see the chapter's size for themselves.


eta - yea for Gamma Phi at Puget Sound!

How did this turn from the recruitment results thread into the Be A Bitch thread? This is one of those things that make people laugh hard when "southern hospitality" and "class" get bandied about.

(obvi, not SWTXBelle or AOE2AlphaPhi)

Whew, thanks 33girl - I was about to go "WHAT?".
