Status of Your Local

hi girls! I'm the VP of Omicron Pi in Hoboken, NJ. We're a little sorority with only about 22 active members (Stevens is very small) Just found the postboard and wanted to leave a little msg. Our formal rush started yesterday. We'll have our new pledge class by next week! We're anticipating maybe 5 or 6 new pledges (since most girls go dphie or phi sig) but who knows this semester since there seemed to be more freshman girls interested in sorority life than in previous years!

Good luck with rush girls, let us know how things go!

Hey,
I'm near the city in NY and am from a local as well at SUNY Cortland. I definitely understand being local amongst national organizations, we also had phi sig and dphie at my school, plus two others. Good luck during recruitment, let us know how it goes, and if you need anything, i'm here (well all of GC is ) to help!

If you think 22 actives is small then mannnnn.

We've got 13 actives right now after crossing 4 new brothers (the biggest pledge class to cross last semester thanks to some stupid new rules we're all getting used to). This semester we've got 5 pledges wearing wonderful green ties which is pretty good.

Last 4 years we've been hovering around 13-19 actives which is fine by me. Smaller numbers means more intimacy and better connections.


p.s. I'm Iota Kappa Phi in Newark, NJ at NJIT

KENDALL!!!! you are the best. Congrats to you guys!

The stupid new rules he's referring to (i think) is NJIT's Deferred Rush policy. I think it took awhile for everyone to get used to it.

I was told that my sisterhood welcomed 6 ladies to our Alpha Eta class.

Good luck this semester everyone!

I just visited the campus that will be home to my sorority's beta chapter! We will chater them at the end of their crossing new members.

I *think* we have 6 girls new membering this semester... News from the girls is few and far between... I think their having some serious problems but don't want to tell any of us older alumni girls... I hope they can handle it....

a member of my sorority was approached yesterday buy the university student affairs/ greek advisor. Apparently too many people are inquiring about our group and i think he's wants us to stop wearing our letters on campus. i know he cant force us to, but now our chapter members are weary about putting on letters. I had a short talk with him myself about the situation, even though i stressed to him about our status as an independent organization, he continued on, because he felt too many students at the university were already members. So, as a result, we are definitely pushing to join a council. we will do our best to become more recoginized as a regional organization and hopefully this will satisfy university rules.
