AXiD was to recolonize after AGD, but it had to be within three years of AGD recolonizing and numbers didn’t support that. DDD closed due to low membership in 2017. They were supposed to recolonize as early as 2022 but the chapter total numbers on the row has not supported that either.

Of the 10 remaining chapters at UCLA, I believe two are under total. With the lackluster 2022 fall recruitment, I hope they readjust total (lower) before recruitment this fall to keep the system healthy.

I was told that they had a rookie Greek advisor to do recruitment with little help this past year. That advisor has already quit.

Dumb question...I thought chapter advisors were volunteer positions? Or do some receive a stipend? Or are you talking about the positions in the FSL office?

It p!sses me off that this is just the normal way things work now: "Let's do it as cheaply as possible and say we care about quality, while letting quality tank." That seems to be the standard that everyone follows, or is forced to follow.

The FSL office. When the strong FSL advisors left, UCLA hired someone with 1 year experience, but at a lesser salary. You can’t financially live in LA for what they wanted to pay.

Are you talking about Troy? He was an amazing Greek Life Coordinator at San Diego State and we lost him to UCLA. He is now at CSU Dominguez Hills.
