The vast majority of GCers are already Greek members. I wish you good luck with this process, but you're barking up the wrong tree here.

If I may jump into territory where I have no business doing so, I would tread much more carefully in your expansion. For instance, I would target A school that is close to you (if you want this to work there is going to have to be a lot of communication and face time at the new location). If you are in New York City, I might look at a school very similar to yours, also right in New York, or possibly northern New Jersey. The last thing you need is to get involved with a school a plane ride away. I'd figure out where YOU want to expand and then see if there are girls there who are interested in joining in the process.

Most people do not want to learn about a new Greek Letter Organization in this way. A post with a link to a website is usually a good start.

This is good advice. While GXP is open to the idea of expansion pretty much anywhere, we definitely have our local targets.

Although, if you have the infrastructure to support board members traveling extensively for expansion, then do what you want.
