Colonizations/Recolonizations
So this year is HUGE for ADPi with all our colonizations and recolonizations going on, so I thought maybe we should have a thread completely devoted to that. 
Colonizations:
University of Deleware (Yeah to our new Alphas!!!!!)
Washington & Lee
Methodist University
Recolonizations:
University of Arizona (YEAH!!!!!) (of course I'm totally biased here  )
Wake Forest University
Augusta State University
Presenting at:
Mississippi State University
All I've got to say, I'm glad on not on 1) the presenting team, they must be tired and 2) the colonization/recolonization team (craziness)
I'm super excited about U of A. I honestly think I'm more excited about seeing how the house is redone.

I was talking to another sister about this just today. We decided that, weather & schedules permitting, we'd gladly help out at W&L next winter.
We also decided that we both need to be independently wealthy so we can just go chapter to chapter, helping out (we wanted to go to Wake Forest, too!)! What a life!

WOW!  How far is it for you Honey?? I would love to go, but it is really too far for a one day event, much less for a one evening event. (googlemaps puts it at 401 miles from me!). UDel was just about 2 hours and I had sisters with me to make it go by quickly!

It's between 3-4 hours, depending on the weather.

There's a recolonization presentation tonight at Huntington in Montgomery, AL. I'll be there with some of my sisters to convince them to recolonize the First & Finest! :]

So, from what I heard, they chose Phi Mu instead. :[
What was amazing, though, was hearing the shocking story of what happened when the Mu chapter closed in 1913--the president of the college outlawed all greek organizations. The founding women took all of their ritual items, etc., burned them and put the ashes in a "coffin". They locked the "coffin" and threw the key in the river. Sad...
Oh well, maybe one day...

It really breaks my heart when we lose an opportunity to recolonize a dormant chapter.

Is this really a true story? It sounds like an urban legend to me...

Wow, what a great year! It makes me so proud to be an ADPi. I wish we could eventually have a chapter in the Norfolk, Va area, such as Old Dominion University.
