2015-2016:
University of Pikeville (KY) looking to convert to NPC and IFC
Kenyon College (OH) - Zeta Alpha Pi looking to convert to NPC
Sewanee (TN) - Alpha Delta Theta looking to convert to NPC

2014-2015:
Cleveland State (OH) - Chi Delta Epsilon becomes Delta Zeta
Texas A&M (TX) - Zeta Beta Sigma becomes Alpha Epsilon Phi
Shorter University (GA) - Epsilon Sigma becomes Alpha Delta Pi
Kenyon College(OH)- Kappa Sigma Alpha becomes Alpha Sigma Tau
Sacred Heart University(CT)- Kappa Phi becomes Delta Zeta

2013-2014:
Wichita State University(KS) - Gamma Epsilon becomes Kappa Kappa Gamma
Cleveland State University(OH) - Gamma Delta becomes Phi Mu




The two campuses off the top of my head were slightly before 2000: Pepperdine moved all of their locals to NPC in 1997, and I believe Valparaiso did the same thing in 1998.


I think John Carroll (near Cleveland) did something similar to Pepperdine and Valparaiso just a few years later.

Thanks so much for this thread!

He had me at Eleanor Roosevelt Memorial College. I appreciate all ten years of this thread,especially when the new ones start on or near my birthday. Hooray for LaneSig!

Is that no longer happening/is Miss St open for all groups not on campus to submit packets?

From what I understand, KKG decided not to colonize...not sure how accurate this is - heard it from my sons' girlfriends who are both DGs at Mississippi State.

Delta Zeta is recolonizing the Beta Theta chapter at Bucknell this fall.

It's Pomona. LOL. I wish y'all luck. I used to advise at a chapter in LaVerne, not far from Pomona. All the chapters at LaVerne had a hard time keeping advisers. I hope AXiD is able to have better luck.

AOII colonized local sororities at Kentucky Wesleyan in 2013 and at Youngstown in Ohio in 2011.

Our Chi O chapter at Cal Poly Pomona has a great team of advisors. (We all catch up at our Founders Day luncheon each Spring.) I know that 1 advisor has been there nearly 20 years and has been voted Advisor of the Year several times and at our national convention.

Congrats to AXD and good luck on your colonization!

did a quick search & didn't see anything on this one ... but, Delta Zeta is colonizing at Murray State University this fall. :)

Phi Mu starts their first recruitment at TCU today. They will do ice water teas, withdraw and complete the process during September. Wishing them well.

That's probably because Chi O has lots of alums in the area. At La Verne, AOII, Sigma Kappa and Phi Sigma Sigma have little alumnae support. AOII is just now getting local alumnae in La Verne after colonizing 10 yrs ago. Everyone else drives in from Los Angeles. It's often hard for groups without a lot of chapters locally to fully staff an adviser group. I know there are not a lot of AXiD chapters locally. I hope there are some local alumnae in the valley. That helps a lot. Many people outside of California really don't understand the problems with traffic and just look at the distance. I wish AXiD all the luck in the world with their colonization and with attracting alumnae in the long run.
