As a matter of fact :D
 

In an email received this morning...



Dear Monmouth Colony Members,

I apologize for this mass e-mail, however, there is some critical
information that needs to be relayed to you and I don't feel it can wait
until your next meeting. I am not certain if Beth has relayed to you
that National Council met this past weekend. As usual, the progress of
the Monmouth University Colony was discussed. It is clear that the time
has come to make a determination as to what the future of the colony
will be. As such a decision has been made...
































...INSTALLATION has been approved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Working within the confines of both the colony's schedule and our
National President's schedule, Installation has been set for April 22nd.
Pre-Initiation activities will begin on the evening of April 21st. Many
more details will follow as to times and locations. For now, however,
please block these two dates on your calendar. For Initiation, all of
you will need to wear white badge attire (including white shoes). I
only tell you this now because white "Quill clothes" can be a bit hard
to come by.

More details will come through Beth. Congratulations, ladies!

Fraternally,

Gretchen

Congratulations :D only a few more weeks til you get to wear our Quill.

Congratulations !!! I've been to several installations ... an installation is so inspiring !! enjoy your special day, I know how hard you all have worked for this!!

YAHOOOOO! Good stuff! I'm so excited for you ;-) See, I told you you didnt have anything to worry about.

Yay! Congratulations to all the women of the Monmouth Colony!

AXiD choosen to present at University of Illnois - Urbana Champaign. Hopefully we can get our Kappa Chapter back.



Another post has that AXiD has been there twice but according to the Every Chapter thread we have only been there once. Which is correct? I tried looking for it but couldn't find the answer. Also do we have a house there?

This thread hasn't been posted on in a while but I felt like everyone should know how AXiD at WPI is doing...

We were installed on October 6, 2007! I'm not postive how many women were initiated at this time but I would guess roughly 60. This was followed by our first COB!

Our first official Formal Recruitment (Gamma Class) brought in 19 pledges, myself included, and 17 were initiated on February 10, 2008. After our Spring COB, we initiated an additional 10 fabulous women on April 13, 2008 (Delta Class)!!

Our chapter is continuing to flourish and I am proud to be an Alpha Xi!!

Alpha Xi Delta has been chosen to make presentations at Drake University in Iowa and at Temple University in PA. Both presentations will be in October.

Good luck to the expansion team!!

Yay- how exciting!

Does anyone know if there's an effort to reestablish at Oregon State University? My little sister is planning on going there, and my cousin and I would LOVE to see her go AXiD. We were the first greeks in our family, and the same sorority by pure coinsidence. I had no idea when I became a new members than I was a legacy, lol.

My greek experience was the most life changing I've ever had and I want that for my sister too, but she's set her heart on Oregon state, so there's no chance of getting her interested in Eastern Washington or University of Washington. I'm gonna try and get her to do formal at OSU anyway, but if there was a possibility of getting her into an AXiD chapter, We'd be so happy.

Unfortunately, I doubt that the chapter at OSU will be recolonized anytime soon, if ever. According the Irishpipes' Recruitment thread, the chapter originally colonized in 1919, went off campus in 1964, then was recolonized in 1980 and went off again in 2005. That last recolonization date I believe is inaccurate though as I went down there as a collegian to help with recruitment in the late 1990s, in what I'm pretty sure was a recolonization.

Even if we were to try and recolonize there, the school would have to be open for expansion, which I don't believe they are. So it looks like you may be out of luck with your little sister. Sorry!
