If your only reason for wanting to start a new sorority or fraternity on campus is because you personally didn't receive a bid - then I agree with adpiucf.
But if you see a space, a community, that only a new GLO could address, AND you have several like-minded friends, AND you are willing to put in a lot of time and effort, it's not necessarily a bad idea.
My chapter wouldn't exist were it not for a group of Jewish women at MIT who felt the need for a sorority that addressed Jewish ideals. My sorority wouldn't exist were it not for a group of Jewish women at Barnard who felt the need for a sorority that addressed Jewish ideals.
That said, if you don't have those pieces in place, an attempt to form a local GLO or bring a new national GLO to campus will more than likely wither and die.
