While not a state, I know that Alpha Gamma Delta has the most chapters in Canada (8), followed by Alpha Omicron Pi (7) and Alpha Phi (6).

I came to this thread just to make sure we claimed Hawaii. And what a state to claim, eh? (the ,eh? is in honor of our Canadian sisters, who I love dearly!)

And I'll add.. although AGD has the second highest number of chapters in Michigan (and 3 closed ones to boot), and we have more chapters of AGD than any other state (although PA will pass us with the Villanova colonization), it means nothing to "society" in Michigan. This is why some say there is no strong hold. I mention my sorority affiliation to people but never know what kind of reaction I'm going to get. Often times, it's a bit of a cringe with a comment like "You don't seem like a sorority girl." That's usually when I tell them about my 24 years of volunteer service with AGD since graduating from college. Do you know that most sorority women on the University of Michigan's campus do NOT wear letters because it's pretty much frowned upon. It's a huge Greek system. They have huge, beautiful houses, yet it's definitely not a status thing to be in a sorority. Many of the students totally look down on the Greeks.

Occasionally when I mention my affiliation, I get a happy/excited response .. from another Greek and we have a bond, just because we are Greek.

I was curious to see where Delta Zeta has, if not a stronghold, the most chapters. So, I went to our website and here are the states with the top five number of chapters:

Collegiate
Pennsylvania - 17
Ohio - 11
Texas/N Carolina - 10
California/Illinois - 9
Michigan - 8

Alumnae
Texas - 15
Florida - 13
California - 11
Pennsylvania - 8
Alabama - 7

If anyone is interested, I stickied the entire list to the top of the DZ Forum

Not Illinois? I feel like every school in Illinois has a DZ chapter.
