Where would you like to see Theta colonize/recolonize?

Thetas,

Where would you like to see a Theta chapter colonized or recolonized?


I'm a southern nut I would like to see Theta eventually recolonize at University of Tennessee-Knoxville, University of South Carolina, Auburn University, University of Arkansas, Wake Forest............


I dont know if we'd had a chapter previous at Arkansas State, but I'd like to see us there as well oh and UNC

I'm adding Mississippi State to this list as well

I'd love to see you guys recolonize at Pitt!

If the numbers stay up, that may happen in a few years, and you'd probably have first dibs because you still have the house!

The house here has furniture that came from the UNC chapter when it closed. Two wing back chairs that we have since recovered with a very chic palm tree print.

Sorry - that's a random thought.

My chapter (Eta Lambda) at Santa Clara University was just chartered this past fall (2003). I was initiated a few weeks ago as part of our 50 girl Beta class. I'm so glad Theta keeps on expanding, and that it has touched my life. I'd love to see it go to the smaller UCs and Cal State schools.

Awesome! Welcome to the sisterhood

I'd love to see Theta back at my chapter, Alpha Iota at WashU in Missouri. The Mizzou chapter is so incredibly strong and there's a lot of alums in St. Louis, but no collegiate chapter! (I doubt that'll happen though, because the chapter's already been recolonized once. Sigh) Barring that, St. Louis U (which would be a new chapter), because it's also a good school with, from what I've seen, pretty awesome greek life. (KD, GPhiB, DG, ADPi, and SK)

I'm cosigning with ThetaPrincess on the Southern chapters, plus these other recolonizations:

Sigma, Toronto (the first Canadian NPC chapter ever!)

Epsilon Kappa at Dartmouth (we have almost every Ivy league school covered!)

Gamma Kappa at George Washington (because hey, we need more sorority women in the capitol)

Epsilon Chi at Guelph (I love Canadian chapters )

And, this is kind of odd, I'd like to see a Theta chapter at every school with both a Pi Phi and a Kappa chapter. Don't ask why, I'm not sure I could explain it

[owlrageous]

Theta was never at Arkansas State-they have Chi O and Alpha Gam thats about it

[carnation]

I want to see y'all back at the U of Arkansas and Auburn--I had many good friends in both chapters.

No need to explain........I know why and I agree with you!

Please excuse the crash, but I wanted to express my thanks to your lovely organization.

The University of Idaho Alpha Gams just had their 100th Anniversary International Reunion Day celebration the first weekend in April. The campus was overrun with squirrels old and young everywhere .

One part of the reunion was a campus tour on the trolley. The ladies in the newly re-colonized Kappa Alpha Theta chapter were so gracious to let us Alpha Gams see their new beautiful house. What a treasure!

I also wanted to tell you that I am glad that Thetas are back on the Idaho campus. It has been a long time coming since they were looking to recolonize when I went through rush in 1990.

Best wishes to all of you Thetas!

In Panhellenic Spirit and Sisterhood!

I've been hearing that Theta will be returning to Auburn within the next year. I hope it's true because it would be wonderful to have them return!

Does anyone think we would recolonize this soon?? The chapter just closed in 2000. It can really be a disservice to new members to come back too quickly. Now don't get me wrong, I would LOVE for Theta to be back at Auburn and I am sure there are many Auburn alums who feel the same way!

I think Theta would do well. I joined Delta Gamma during her recolonization last year, and I already see the need for another sorority. Since DG came back on campus the average chapter size has risen, and pledge classes are still quite large (58 was quota plus). I think Theta would do just as well as we have done. Plus they would be our neighbors in Sasnett Hall

[MoeAU579]

I recently rushed at Auburn this past fall and I withdrew...(a long story...)anyways, I think that Theta at Auburn would be a great opportunity for all of the girls that withdrew or were released from recruitment due to not being asked back to any sororities...and we know there were a lot of them. But I was wondering if anyone knew how the rush for this sorority will be done in the spring?

[ThetaPrincess24]

At this time there are no plans as far as I know to recolonize at Auburn.

I hope that we do at some point, but it is up to the panhellenic there to invite us to come back and up to the people in charge of extension at HQ to decide if it is in the fraternity's best interest.


I've never been close to a colonizing chapter so I dont know how the girls are chosen that choose to rush a new chapter on campus.
