Yes, you are. BTW, when you finish getting a chapter at every school within 200 miles of Norfolk, could you move to New York City?

Sorry, y'all, you can't have her!! After she finishes all the schools within that 200 mile radius, we plan to secretly open NEW colleges and universities......just to keep her safely in our midst!

Oh, wait....not such a secret anymore....LOL

How about a deal? When Hampton U, Christopher Newport and Regent are in separate sections from each other, she moves to New York?

It includes more than that...

I pulled 200 miles out of the air, but by driving. It is almost 200 miles from the Regent University campus to DC, almost 200 miles to Raleigh or Durham, NC, and about 200 miles to Lynchburg. I'm not sure if it includes half of the active chapters in Region III, but it has to be close (some of the chapters in Washington DC are slightly less than 200, slightly more.)

Rechartering Xi Tau @ Frederick College/TCC-Portsmouth is next, right?

Quala67 · #72 05-19-2008, 04:08 PM

Frederick College does not exist. The school was closed, and the property sold to Tidewater Community College. So, to link the two is improper. (my former father-in-law went to Frederick College, so this is a subject I know well) Xi Tau will never be rechartered, b/c the institution which held that charter is no more. Should ever anything happen at TCC-Portsmouth, it would be a new charter. And, that property is going to be vacated by TCC-P in the next two years, as a newer campus is being built in a different location - actually IN Portsmouth! (ironically, TCC-P does not lie in the City of Portsmouth, but just inside the jurisdiction of the City of Suffolk)

More info that you wanted, but I had to respond to that...

It may, to some, be improper, but it *has* been done.

I just got off the phone with the Archivist at SIUE. The Epsilon Pi charter was granted to Shurtleff University in 1948. In May of 1957 Shurtleff went out of business and SIU (@ Carbondale, though the location was not used since it was the only one), which had been planning to offer courses on the campus, instead ended up in complete control of the University and began offering classes at a residence center in July of 1957. Many Shurtleff upperclassman finished their degrees though the SIU campus. SIU-Edwardsville did not exist as a separate accredited institution until at least 1960. The archivist is trying to verify whether or not Alpha Phi Omega was in existance at Shurtleff when the school closed...

In each case a private institution with a charter of Alpha Phi Omega had a public university as its successor on the same campus. Why should Tidewater Community College Portsmouth be denied the Xi Tau charter when SIU-Edwardsville received the Epsilon Pi charter?

I don't think that a charter should be granted to the buildings and land, which if TCC-P were to get a charter in the next two years and it be called Xi Tau, would be what has happened. As I said earlier, the campus is moving - and therefore the school has no tie to that land/buildings formerly known as Frederick College.

FC was a private school; TCC-P is a public community college. We're talking apples to kiwis here. I personally would go on record as strongly opposing Xi Tau ever being reissued, since the school is now defunct.
