Expansion 2003 and Beyond

lenoxxx · #1 11-22-2002, 06:00 PM

Ok here is the new thread

The word is for 2003 we are going back to Valparaiso, and there is a strong Rumour that Duke is in the works too, with two fraternities getting the boot, opening two coveted slots on campus IFC.

Please post any thoughts, rumours or dream expansions that you'd like to see!

Hello, Lambda Chi Alphas!!
I am 2002 Panhellenic President at Valparaiso. I just thought I would confirm that the chapter is being recolonized beginning in January. There is a lot of alumni support for this chapter, and it does not hurt that Marty Smith is a Valpo grad and initiate. I believe the start date for recruitment is January 19.
I am excited for this opportunity because I have always wanted to see a re/colonization. I also have met many wonderful brothers who truly believe in you creed. Best of luck!!!

I saw Marty Smith last week @ the AFA/NIC Convention in Columbus, & he said Valpo's recolonization is "looking good" (to use his phrase).

Now, if we can get some interest up @ Bradley & Western Illinois...both schools have strong Greek representation (30 & 28 chapters, respectively).

Any Kappa-Upsilon or Beta-Tau alums out there? Let's hear from you, guys!

Hearing Rumors of U. Missouri!

Closed for hazing. LCAP owns the House so is available!

Nice House to!

Still dont know about U Arkansas.

Good Luck Valpo!!!

Tom- that post makes NO sense.

No sentences, punctuation etc.

How can Missouri be closed for Hazing, they were just colonized 2 months ago?

They have no house- it was sold for cash assets- this is on the LCA national website success stories with housing section

Please try to explain what you are talking about in a better fashion, hundreds of posts that make no sense are worse than no posts at all

Jason, I know what I was posting and understood it!

1. Did not know U. Mo. had recolonized, had heard that they were!
2. They were closed for hazing.
3.Did not realize that LCAP had sold it, I thought they were renting to keep it available.
4.U. Arkansas was closed for low membership and I think hazing!
5. Found on site that Valporiso was being recolonized!

Does that explain better?

I think, that is about what I said in earlier post.

Working 11 hour days 6 days a week, drinking all night doesnt help I guess!

As you know more about new Colonizing and re-colonizing, I expect you to help keep the GC LXA's informed and updated.

That is your assignment if you exceptit! This thread will self destruct in 10 seconds!

Keep up the great Blood Work for us!!!!!!!

Hey Guys, just got the LXA Edu. Letter!

Dont know if saw it but!

Here is the latest updated list of Colonies. Sounds like recocolonies:
U Memphis, Loyola-Marymount, Elmherst, Wilfred-Laurier, MurryState, Ohio, Marshall, Cal-Davis, Northern Colorado, Marietta, Kent State, Missouri, and Arkansas!

If these are all recolonizations, I am excited to bring Zetas back to schools where we were once strong!
Dont know anything about New Chapters, maybe Jason can be of help, as I know he keeps ear to ground on this end of it!

God I hope we start growing and prosper!

May the force be with you!

God Bless each and All!

I can speak from personal experience that the new colony at Elmhurst College (IL) is strong and growing. The Northwestern chapter initiated 20+ in November, and Matt Eibling (ELC) was in attendance.

The school's a comparatively small one...LCA is 1 of 3 fraternities on campus (Alpha Sigma Phi and Phi Beta Sigma are the others). As for NPC, they've only got 6 sororities. With a student body of just 2,540 (the size of my dorm @ Illinois State), it's not a large grouping to draw from.

Well brown Christmas for me as is snowing like hell down home, so Dad said do not take a chance coming down!

Hope you and the rest of the Brothers have a Very Merry Holiday

Since when did Murray State, Ohio U, and Marshall University need to Recolonize?

What letter was that in?

Lenoxxx

Tom Earp · #14 12-26-2002, 10:28 PM

Jason, is in the wunter 2002-03 LXA Educational Foundation News Letter.

Did not say how long they have been re-colonized.

This is the most full list of newly new or r-colonized that I have ever seen.

lenoxxx · #15 12-27-2002, 12:05 AM

Murray State and Marshall have never been recolonized, and OU was recolonized twice, once in the 40's or 50's and once in like the 80's.

I believe there is a Murray State Brother on here- what does he say?

I get the educational foundation's newsletter and I dont remember seeing this. When I get back into the state of Pennsylvania, Ill pull the last copy out for the final fact check.
