Sororities on campus
by: GreekkI don’t attend FIU but I come back to Miami during my breaks from my university up north. And I have to ask why FIU has these non elite and irrelevant sororities? Even your “top houses” would be considered middle at best when compared. Like where are the Big Three (Kappa Kappa Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Pi Beta Phi)? There isn’t even a tri-delta chapter here either. I feel like Greek life at FIU would be more authentic if these chapters would charter there. Just a thought

I simply made a suggestion that FIU should include “elite” sororities like Kappa, Theta, and Pi Phi. I’m aware that Chi Omega has the largest sorority membership. Just like I mentioned in my original post FIU should include Tri-Delta or even ChiO! Lately AOPI has been leaving multiple campuses due to low membership and retainment. I know there’s a chapter in FIU so I don’t want to offend but it’s a fact.
I’m also aware of the selection process from the university and nationals on where to charter. I’m just surprised that the only well known sororities at FIU is Phi Mu and Alpha Chi.
Also like I mentioned in my original post I go to school up “north” aka Texas just to clarify. They were the ones to coin the Big Three as they were the first “sororities” before the term sororities existed along with their successful alumna.
My main purpose of my post was to simply question the selection of sororities at FIU. I can’t speak for everyone but I didn’t apply to FIU due to their unusually options for sororities. Plus it doesn’t help that sororities can’t have houses in Miami.

Lol I know but it’s “north” (hence the quotations) from Florida. I’m a Theta at SMU which makes me seem biased. However in the SEC or any southern school that would considered the Big Three. I also used quotes ex “elite” as that’s what they are labeled. I’m not classist in anyway lol. Either way my purpose wasn’t to offend but to question the selection of sororities. Especially when I knew plenty of girls who didn’t want to attend college in Miami since they offer not so well known sororities without houses.

Yes what you said was partially right. However, sororities and fraternities also have a national reputation based on their alumni. Hence the reasoning of many including myself rushing to be a part of a prestigious sorority with connections. So including at least one of the Big Three would help attract more students to FIU’s Greek life. Also I simply questioned FIU’s Greek life to understand there was no attitude. So with that you mean to tell me Phi Sig or Delta Phi is as attractive as joining Kappa or Theta? Do your Greek research
