Stanford
University of Toronto
McGill University

and to maybe add some more chapters in:
UNLV and
North and South Carolina

AngelPhiSig knows many of us want to see a chapter of Phi Sigma Sigma at Thiel (my school) but greek life didn't like the idea of another sorority. Oh no... 5 sororities? Heaven forbid...

Guys, it's not selfish that we want to have chapters close to home! I'm sure most of us want to have chapters everywhere possible!

It's great that some people are planning on going to grad school and want to have a chapter there. I want to have a chapter in my hometown so that if I move back here after college I can still be involved as an alum firsthand and not have to travel. To think that we're all wishing chapters will be wherever we are is a great testament to how much our organizations mean to us...we don't just want them in our hearts and minds, we want them physically right next to us, damn it!

I'd love for more national Greek presence in Hawaii, period!

If there was a NPC that I'd want to colonize here, I'd say I'd want Delta Zeta to come. Your DZ Hawaii alums are amazing. Especially Caryl!

I'd love to see the Alpha Gamma Delta chapters in Southern California recolonize. I believe we once had chapters at UCLA, USC, SDSU, and UCSB (if there are any more, please correct me!). As of now we have only 3 active chapters (SFSU, Sonoma State, CSU-Chico) in CA. That's why everyone was so happy when we found out we'd be colonizing at Chapman U!

I MISS the DG's at Stanford! They were SO much fun, and really great women to be around (LOVED Anchor Splash). I hope that they return one day...

You are so sweet! Caryl does rock, doesn't she? Many of us have lobbied for a chapter in HI, and even more have said they'd volunteer to be on the initiation team (me included-fat chance!). Word is that they don't think there is the demand for another sorority out there. What do you think?

I am very partial to my state...it's weird to have as many chapters as we do in Texas, and still be considered a "lesser known!" (we currently have 9 active chapters that I can think of, but they are spread out, and not at the state's "name" school--no offense Aggies...that isn't what I mean!).

Anyway, I'd love to see us recolonize at the University of Texas, just so my daughter can go there! (whole family is longhorns except me, and I don't think she'll go to my alma mater, Tarleton)...my brother would die if she went to A&M so she can pledge there, but his wife would love it b/c she's an Ag...but then, she's trying to do a little Tri-Delt brainwashing too, so I'm trying to keep her away!!! That was a terrible sentence!

And I have a huge desire to get a colony at Texas Tech (because I live in Lubbock right now, and they sorely need another sorority!). Speaking of Tech, we need to get the Lambda Chi chapter back up and running so my husband will have something to do while we live here.

Nice to have: recolonize SMU, andSouthwestern (not to be confused w/SWTSU which is alive and kicking), maybe Midwestern, TCU and/or Baylor.

I know, shut up Andi!

I would love to see Sigma Kappa at Colby College, where we were founded, but Colby College no longer has a greek system.

Other than that, I'd like us to gain chapters in the Ivy League.
Also, we need more chapters in North Carolina and Florida.

I would love to see us at Hunter and Lehman again, I dont think the CUNY system has greeks anymore

A and AA:
In 1968 Hunter split into two campuses (Hunter on Park Ave and Herbert Lehman in the Bronx) and so our Alpha split into A and AA, seeing that when we hit our first double letter chapter- it was Beta Alpha, not the "normal" Alpha Alpha.

(get it? We go A- to - Omega and then BetaA to BetaOmega...)

Other than that, to be selfish I would like to see a chapter at UCF and UNF also I think we need more North Carolina chapters as well maybe Chapel Hill or in the Charlotte/Davidson (if they decide to allow sororities) area. I think we only have 2 now Elon and Duke.

Actually, there was a recolonization effort at Tulane a few years back. For whatever reason, though, it was unsuccessful.

It's the midwest at least

I've been on that campus for a few years already, and I have to admit that the locals have been struggling with their numbers. Still, I'm guessing that Greek Life isn't too strong here because there's not much of a variety of sororities to choose from--and while I respect the locals--I really wish that there were more national presence on campus. It's the only way we can increase our numbers, IMHO.

I truly think the demand is there. It was through the hard work of AGD alums that brought our colonization there 10 years ago, and I'm certain that it can happen again. I think it's time for another NPC to find its way to UH-Manoa!

But I don't want much

ACEOFDIAMOND · #29 06-28-2002, 10:29 AM

It would be great to see my organization on any other campus, but that most likely wont happen since we're local!!!

gamma_girl52 · #30 06-28-2002, 10:51 AM

I don't have any particular places where I'd like Gamma Sig to be. We just need to focus on rechartering basically, because we have a LOT of chapters inactive.

I'd like to see Gamma Sig more in Atlanta besides GSU. And I'd like to see our sorority expand westward, because we are very concentrated in the East and South.
