The Panhellenic Aspect of Sorority Recruitment

We know how disruptive that would be, so that is REALLY kind of them. Every one of those future colony members is going to have a warm spot for those host chapters for years to come! Now THAT's panhellenic.

That would be Phi Mu's Colonization at Kentucky.

No problem. Actually yours is better. I am proud of these two houses. There was a time that probably would not have happened.

Any news on how Phi Mu recruitment is going at UK?

Isn't that just a remarkable thing? I'm assuming these are traditional chapter houses with 40+ girls living in who will probably have to avoid the front door, not hang out on the ground floor of the house for several hours, maybe give up a meeting space for the colony advisors... I'm proud of them!

Yes.

The older I get, the happier I am about the whole panhellenic thing. I'm so happy to hear about women finding their sorority home, that while I still get giddy over a Kappa happy ending, I'm still thrilled that GLOs as a whole continue to thrive.

I especially love legacy stories that work out. Back in the day, I was devastated that my legacy group dropped me, but in retrospect, that chapter would not have been the best place for me, great women though they were (and still are). I hope that my daughter will be a Kappa when it's her turn, but if she chooses to be a KD like her grandmother and aunt, a Chi O like her great-grandmother and other aunts, a DG like her aunt, a Theta like still another aunt, or whatever fine organization she chooses...I'll be happy for her that she is a sorority woman. (I can't wait for her older cousins to start rushing - maybe our family can start challenging the Carnation Nation on the panhellenic family! As big as we are, I have a feeling that she's still got me beat. So far, though, my daugher has 15 cousins and none are in high school yet!)

LOL!
