by: QuestionSo back when AXiD was voted on campus, they also voted to bring Phi Mu on next. Is there any estimate when that will happen?

On some campuses due to the lack of interest in sorority membership by current students, NPC groups have been known to cancel planned colonizations. There have also been intentional cancellations by colleges and universities of announced NPC colonies. Additional reasons for colony cancellation can be: lack of follow-thru on the part of the NPC due to finances; upcoming colonies at larger/more prestigious schools; low alum numbers available to help a new colony; and the fact the original interest group desiring colonization has graduated before the college allowed a new NPC colony onto campus. There have even been NPC's that interview women for a colony, then decide no women on that campus will truly live up to that group's expectations and cancel the colony before pledging begins.

What the hell is a "sister organization?" The 26th NPC organizations are all independent entities. The way ADII is run has nothing whatsoever to do with anything. Phi Mu is an extremely well run & strong national organization that would pull out all the stops to make sure a chapter at Tech would succeed. Also, no one has houses at Tech, so do you even know what you are talking about? A house =/= a lodge, and Phi Mu would absolutely build or renovate a lodge.

There is no land for phi mu to buy in Greek circle & no existing house is going to sell to phi mu even if they’re temporarily kicked off.
Question: national orgs don't fund a schools chapter, chapters fund national orgs through their dues. So what are you talking about re: ADPI?

phi mu is not a sister organization of adpi. adpi originally had 7 founding members. 6 months after adpis creation one of those 7 got upset and formed their own sorority which is now phi mu. so yes a lot of the traditions and things are similar however they are not sister organizations.

I care. My aunt and sister are Tech phi mu. I would have gone phi mu for sure but they picked azd. I went to a few meetings about being a founding sister at the new colony. they were recruiting quite a few girls for an interest group

Phi Mu is much stronger nationally. AXD is bottom tier nationally. Phi Mu is more mid tier with more alum support

Hi! My mom was a Phi Mu at Texas Tech from 1958-1962. I am trying to help find out what the chapter name was. Can you help?

Agreed. It colonized in 1958! Any idea why it lost charter? I think Phi Mu and Gamma Phi beta should have recolonized over added Alpha xi Delta

I am sorry that is just not true. Ca population grows by the day. Los Angeles has more people than your largest city.
lets just call CA and TX large and equally needed for alum networks

I agree. CA and TX are both such large states with greek alum that it is pretty vital to grow the chapters there. Plus both states have a growing number of applicants to each school.

AZD won’t last at Tech. They will never get a lodge here on Greek circle. Their alum base in Texas is small and no one knows them. They have 4 maybe 5 chapters in Texas and they’re all awful. Phi Mu was a much better choice for Tech.

I had never heard of axid before they came here. I don’t know anyone who has a grandma who is one. I don’t think they have any support within Texas. Plus alum support takes years to grow. These girls in a few years will be 23 years old and not donating tens of thousands back to their sorority

I never heard of AZD either. Phi Mu at least seems so southern to me and cute.
I feel like azd only got added because of the Burkhart Center for Autism opening at the time and their philanthropy being autism. Gave them an on campus philanthropy role

So why did they even bother voting on stacked extension? Sucks for Phi Mu to get their hopes up. Should have selected them first.
