Well, it's been looking like this was going to happen for some time, but it looks like it's finally pretty definite. UCF's looking at expanding this Fall. (At least that is the understanding I got from one of my sisters who actually bothered to attend Panhellenic this week, unlike me.
)
My understanding is that Panhellenic decided this week to expand with Alpha Epsilon Phi this Fall, and to quite possibly expand this Spring or next Fall with another sorority. Again, this is coming from talking with a sister who told me what went on at Pan, so my info could be slightly off.)
For those of you unfamiliar with the campus, we have ten sororities, and last year quota was 69. (It hovers right around that area every year.) My chapter, Kappa, is the newest on campus. We colonized in Fall 2002. We have a bit of an unusual housing situation, as we have a total lack of designated room for more Greek housing, so currently four out of the ten NPC sororities are unhoused and essentially have very little they can do to change that fact.
Sororities already on campus include:
Alpha Delta Pi
AlphaXi Delta
Delta Delta Delta
Kappa Delta
Kappa Alpha Theta *
Delta Gamma *
Kppa Kappa Gamma *
Chi Omega *
Pi Beta Phi
Zeta Tau Alpha
For those curious, I starred the unhoused sororities. I'm really excited- as a charter member of my chapter I've been waiting to see a new sorority come on campus. We'll see if we actually manage to make a dent in quota.
