we need more sororities

I'd rather see good big name sororities here like Tri Delt, KKG and Pi Phi. I think strong national chapters is exactly what our school needs for greek life to have more of a presence here. People are more likely to rush if they have friends in a chapter on campus even if their friend is at another school.

go for it. try to add a chapter.

San Jose State needs additional sororities. The current houses are too small for 100 members let alone 120. Former houses that closed in the late 60's and early 70's should be brought back to campus; e.g. Kappa Kappa Gamma and Kappa Alpha Theta. Chi Omega which closed in the 90's should also be brought back.
These sororities would give the diversity needed for women going through recruitment.

Yes, Chi Omega was a pretty strong house in the early 80's and was the top academically.

You have to remember a campus will change status and stature over time. What originally brought an AXO, GPhi, Theta, KKG, Sigma Kappa, XO, Phi Mu or AEPhi chapter to our campus may not exist today.

Individual sorority criteria as to where and when they will re/colonize chapters changes, too.

In very rare cases a sorority will be permanently abolished from a campus.

That said, the decision to open for expansion has not been broached in nearly a decade. But the current trend nationwide is smaller incoming frosh classes that tend toward being less able to successfully juggle extracurricular university activities due to financials.

I go to school at Ucla where we have 11 Pan hel sororities. All except for AGD have just about if not over 200 members. Adding more sosoritiss to a school like sjsu isn’t good as they don’t have large chapters as is. Also tridelt just left because they struggled so much but agd isn’t that far off either

Bump. Major bump. We need more sororities here. There used to be double as many in the 60s/70s.

All Sororities have houses, so a new sorority would have to buy / build a house in one of the most expensive real estate markets in the US.

More sororities aren’t happening not for the near future. Greek Life here is on a major downturn with less and less students joining or choosing to remain active in Greek Life because of an unsupportive administration.
