A place for SDT in Greek life, but formal recruitment isn't it. It's not really fair for their national/alumnae to make them compete head-on with the other chapters. Being a small, unhoused group that only COBs and provides a Greek experience for girls who wouldn't otherwise get to be in a sorority is their new normal. And there's nothing wrong with that.

really irrelevant. Of course, there are other chapters that are bottom, but what does that really matter if her chapter isn't?
I just see a tough path ahead for SDT where success isn't likely at all. It's that way for a lot of the bottom-tier fraternities. There's a lot of obstacles they have to navigate, some of which they have no control over. This isn't an easy campus to for a new greek organization to flourish, inevitably most of them will fail.

National yes, strong, no. Only TPA and AEPhi are smaller.
There are GLOs that would have been a much better fit for Texas.

A new group -- they've been on campus as long as DG has and they've never been closed. Their national came last year to help them with recruitment because they were barely hanging on after losing their house (six or seven years ago).

you're trying to be nice and politically correct and everything.... but have you seen pictures of them? I agree from Chi-O to AZD, there's great, attractive girls in every sorority . When you look at SDT, it's like comparing an indian fraternity to an IFC fraternity.
I don't think they have much of a longer life here at UT.

I heard they have been around for a very very long time so they are not new. They had a rough path and are working themselves up again I think that takes time! Plus some of the girls I saw there are very pretty! I go to LSU(my brother goes to UT) and here we have Phi Mu which are great and UT doesn't so I think just because they are not as big as the others doesn't mean they cant be big somewhere else.... I'm sure all other sororities were small at some point and build themselves up.

Is strong at only a handful of schools -- U of Miami, Michigan, Syracuse, UPenn, and Cornell (their Alpha chapter).

That's really sad. Wish them the best in open recruitment. I guess that's the best way for them.
