Colonization at the University of Alabama?!?

[AnchorAlumna]

I understood the statement in that it's a committee recommendation to the sororities to vote on.
And yes, I did understand that the recommendation is not final until the delegates vote.
So...I don't see that what was posted was so awful.
But...I support a lock on the thread.
(Doesn't mean another thread won't pop up...)

That email was sent to the Bama sorority leaders to take to their chapters to present, discuss and vote on during their confidential Chapter Business meetings. It is not appropriate to be sharing this on a public message board. I believe it should be deleted.

You're kind of trying to un-ring the bell there.

At the point something gets sent out to all the chapters for discussion at chapter, it's not going to be confidential much longer. We can all imagine and hope this isn't the case, but come on now. . .

I'm not saying it was correct for whoever to post here to post it, but deleting it isn't likely to do much good.

We all know that it's likely that it won't remain confidential, but posting it publicly on GreekChat is a whole 'nother story.

When we hear of campuses being open for expansion, how often do we get to read about confidential info? Emails meant for campus Panhellenic officials? Not often? Never?

While deleting it probably won't do much good for 'Bama, it may just send a message, saying: "keep your mouths shut about colonization until after the official announcement's been made."

I say congratulations to Alpha Phi for being asked to present at these two outstanding schools, as well as W&L, I believe. Obviously they are doing something right at a National level to have been asked to present in the first place. It sounds to me like they have all their ducks in a row.

And from where is this information?

W&L Greek Newsletter, I think that is where I read it. Presentations are over. Decision has not been made. I may be wrong, though. I thought they said Tri Delta, Alpha Phi and Phi Mu. Maybe I goofed.

Read the whole thread. One of the sororities you mentioned didn't present, and the decision isn't to be made public until tomorrow, at the earliest.

I was wondering if you had insider information, and I apologize for my rude tone.

I didn't take it as rude. I thought maybe dreamed it. I do know another group is going to be added to that wonderful campus and whoever is selected will be very lucky. It is a great greek community for all the NPCs there. They are so inclusive and have awesome young ladies that go there to school. It is a win, win for everyone.

Definitely agree! I've often said that, if I could choose five chapters where I'd like to see ADPi colonize, Washington & Lee would be one of them! Such a beautiful campus!

i do have a question though...i heard that there was a sorority that got kicked off of the campus because they were running a brothel out of their house. i was wondering 1. if this was true and 2. if someone could tell me who it was as it is a topic of discussion on sorority row.

A presentation does not mean they will be allowed to come on campus. All three groups selected to present will have an equal amount of time to present, and Panhellenic will then make their decision.

Regarding the second part of your post...instead of wondering about and perpetuating rumors, maybe you should take some time and read the announcements at the top of the AKA forum BEFORE you start posting.

as far as the second part of my post is concerned i was simply posing a question because seeing as this is my third year at the university and i have heard that every year since i have been here, i was just wondering, not "perpetuating rumors" as i have been accused.

As a member of your fine organization once said...
