Rumor: New Sorority at UCF?

[AXOrushadvisor]

At the University of Arizona AXO has tried to recolonize several times, but always to soon. The result was finally leaving and waiting at least 5+ years. The sorority members down there even recognize that they need to leave for that period of time so that there aren't people there who remember them. Adpi recolonized there and was very successful. A Phi did it at ASU many years ago and they have been very successful so it can be done and done right.

On a side note ASU is expanding. I believe 6 chapters sent packets.

In both cases, existing members took alumnae status with immediate recolonization the next term, in both cases. For the University of Michigan, it was a while ago.. 2000 or 2001. For The Ohio State University it was in 2007. When big houses are involved, it's worth the risk to try to recolonize immediately rather than have to wait for expansion opportunities in the future (see Michigan State and Berkeley).

You mean large physical houses?

I am so keeping my fingers crossed! ASU is in my backyard, and I would LOVE to be involved in a colonization.
