Many thanks to the sisters of Iota Chapter. I got much of this information from their website!

Thanks also to the sisters and friends who have written me with corrections

[AchtungBaby80]

Whoa, that must've taken you some time! Great job!

[Nikki_DZ]

I've seen these on a couple of websites....All of them miss the lovely GAMMA TAU chapter (Bowling Green), though!

The chapter was originally charter in 1950. It closed from May '99 to January '00, and was reinstalled in (I think) November of 2001.

Hey! Sorry to crash on your board, but I did an Ashland search and saw that one of your college's that is inactive is Ashland. Which Ashland is that? IS that Ashland, OH or Ashland, KY? I'm just wondering b/c my mom joined a sorority when she went to Ashland - but she honestly doesn't remember anything about it except ritual stuff, which she won't repeat. Anyway, both my mom and my aunt joined the only two sororities at Ashland. I was just wondering, b/c my mom has no clue what she was in. Which is really kinda sad, but lol that's my mom.

Hi Daisy!
Thanks for stopping the DZ Forum! It took me so long to input the names of the chapters; I'm glad people are reading them!

The Theta Psi chapter is at Ashland College in Ohio. Is that where your mom went?

Best,
Tracy

[dvs-dz]

According to their website, Theta Psi is definitely active at Ashland University.

In addition, Gamma Zeta (Southwestern University) went inactive around 1990. Kappa Zeta (North Texas State) is also inactive, but I don't remember when that happened.

Quite a bit of work you put into this list - thank you, Killarney Rose.

[AUDeltaGam]

Quick question from a non DZ-

Why do ya'll not have any Eta chapters?

[DZslund10]

I know the chapter ar Louisiana Tech went inactive sometime in the late 80's/early 90's.

Thanks for inputting the list!

GEAUX TIGERS!!!!

[KillarneyRose]

Thanks for the corrections, dzslund10 and
dvs-dz! And my apologies to the sisters at Ashland College, whose chapter is alive and well (and has a very nice website!).

AUDeltaGam, we had an Eta Chapter (Baker Univ. (KS) ), which is now inactive. I don't know why there were no subsequent chapters founded that start with Eta. I just noticed that the same goes for Mu and Nu. Any sisters out there know why this is? Now my curiousity is up!

[UF56]

Forgot this one.....

Pi Gamma - California State University/Northridge

[UF56]

There was also a chapter at Jacksonville University in Florida that has gone inactive...I think it was one of the Beta chapters...

OK, because I'm a dork, I looked this up and there are 4 NPC sororities at Ashland University (OH). Delta Zeta is the oldest, installed in '65. Two more, Alpha Delta Pi and Alpha Phi, were installed in 1967. Phi Mu came in '68. So, I guess it would depend on when your mom and your aunt went there if you were trying to figure out which ones they were members of.

OK, proceed with the thread.

Okay, this could be totally unsubstansiated, but....

I was told that the reason we don't have Eta and Mu chapters is b/c of the potential of negative nicknames, etc. Can't you just hear the stupid 18 year old boys now? "Yeah, I ETA DZ, too" harharfreakinghar.

Unfortunately, the Omicron Tau Chapter at Brock University in St. Catherine's, Ontario, Canada is not active. I'm a little fuzzy on the details, but I believe that they have not been active since the mid-late 90s.
