Sorority Expansion

[Drolefille]

What chapter are you in there? Or are you IN a chapter at all? (You're unclear on that)

SIUC has a party school reputation and there are almost certainly valid reasons why the NPC isn't interested in expansion there at this time. You heard the information through a glorified game of telephone so don't assume you have the full story. (I don't know if the party school rep is part of the reason, but it is there.) How do the chapters get along? Is the school supportive of Greeks? Are the students supportive of Greeks?

And more importantly, what happened during "a bad week?"


Sororities and fraternities don't usually try to have equal numbers in their chapters. It's not uncommon that the NPC chapters are larger than the men's fraternities. And chapters of 70 are not seen as particularly large as far as the NPC goes. However your 3rd hand info said it wasn't about numbers.

All of the NPC sororities are NPC sororities because they agreed to the NPC rules on expansion (among other things.) That's why they follow these rules you think are silly. And you assume that a sorority would want to come to your campus in such a "toxic environment" anyway.

If the school will allow a local, or a non-NPC national or regional sorority then that could be the way to go to bring another sorority onto campus if that's where the interest lies. But if the campus has issues, more chapters won't solve anything.
