Not a Sigma Kappa, alumna or otherwise. My sorority is already at A&M thankyouverymuch. I'm extremely active in Houston area Panhellenic affairs so I am aware of the activity level and strength of the sorority alumnae organizations. You'd be surprised how large/active some groups are in comparison to others. It often does not correlate with national size, local alumnae numbers, or number of or perceived status of nearby collegiate chapters. MANY sorority alumnae attended the UofH extension presentations even though their groups were not presenting or were already there. This was because extension simply doesn't happen that frequently in these parts and we were interested in the process. It was also because some sororities are in hyper expansion mode right now and it's helpful to see what the "competition" is doing in case your group comes up against that group in future expansions. I have no inside track on the decisions currently being made at A&M. I'm simply letting people know the kinds of factors that have affected expansion decisions at other schools I'm familiar with. One of the other big factors is financial strength since a new sorority at A&M is going to have to have a competitive house if it has any chance of survival. If I had to guess who else sent in an interest packet in addition to the groups mentioned above, I think AGD, Tri Sigma and Delta Phi Epsilon are likely. If I were a betting person, my money would be on Alpha Phi to get this one.
