2022/2023 New Chapters/Expansions/Charters/Closures

I have a feeling they could get a house, especially at a place like UTK where like many southern chapters, the big sorority mansion is part of the experience. But we'll see what happens as more information about the colony comes out over the next year.

The sorority village has not been a part of the UT experience for very long. I’m thinking houses opened about 12 years ago. There isn’t room for expansion. I was at Tennessee in the years leading up to AGD closing, and I am thrilled for them that they are coming back. It was hard to watch a chapter struggle. They may be able to take over a house on fraternity row, but I can’t lie and say that I’m not worried for them.
FYI - you basically have to take a bus to get to sorority village from the main campus. It’s not exactly “on campus.”

The frat house thing is a possibility for them when they come back. Why I mentioned houses being such a huge deal, as a PNM going through recruitment where there are sorority villages and such do want the live in experience at a school with the houses. But we'll see what happens or if they announce plans for some form of housing, even if it is an old frat house.

This will be a recolonization. I don’t know when the chapter closed but Pi Kap was still there around 2009-2010.

Hope this is a start of a re-invigoration of Greek Life at UCLA.

I do too, especially after you spoke about the advisor situation there.
