the only ones i could see surviving at ole miss would be agd, a chi o, dz, gamma phi, or zeta. all of the others are pretty much irrelevant on any campus

The traditionally southern ones we are missing would be DZ, AXO, GPB, AGD, ZTA (although we had them and they left in 1999, but they could easily come back like ADPi, and be successful in recolonization like ADPi. Their old house was between DG and KKG, and is now used for the Hospitality major. The old ADPi house was next to KD, and now serves as the Honors College. Some say that if ADPi had built a traditionally southern house, they would have lasted here). I think that ZTA should be the next one to come here, because they have history here, and ZTA is a very good sorority in the South, with a fairly strong presence in the rest of the country, and will attract a lot of PNMs. I've heard of lots of ZTA legacies here, because ZTA is prominent at many schools. I think we'd need these traditionally southern ones first, before we allow any nontraditionally southern ones here, as got avoid the backlash that Alpha Phi is getting. The Greek life office has said that ideally, they'd want about 5 more sororities here. The five listed about would be perfect. However, there is the issue of housing. No sorority would EVER last here without a house, and there is no more space on Rebel Drive or Sorority Row for one. Perhaps one could go across from Chi O, but that doesn't seem like a big enough space for a house up to par with the size of the other houses here. Building a whole new row somewhere would perpetuate an "Old Row/New Row" mindset.

According to an article on hottytoddy.com lots of chapters sent applications in but only 4 were invited to present - Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Phi, Alpha Gamma Delta, and Delta Zeta. Google "new sororities at ole miss" and the hottytoddy.com article should be the first one that pops up if you want to read it. Its from 2013 I think

There are 26 NPC sororities. 11 are already here. The ones currently NOT at Ole Miss are:
AEPhi- alpha epsilon phi
AGD- alpha gamma delta
ASA- alpha sigma alpha
AST- alpha sigma tau
AXiD- alpha xi delta
AXO- alpha chi omega
DPhiE- delta phi epsilon
DZ- delta zeta
GPB- gamma phi beta
PSS- phi sigma sigma
SDT- sigma delta tau
SK- sigma kappa
SSS- sigma sigma sigma
TPA- theta phi alpha
ZTA- zeta tau alpha
Some of these would be perfect fits for Ole Miss, and others not so much (either because of lack of popularity in the South, because of lack of $/alum support/resources etc to be sucessful at a campus like Ole Miss, or both).
