Oh no! If theta gets kicked off then which sorority on the botton tier is going to take their place at the very bottom of the tiers? We always counted on having them as at least the one house we could say we were better than.

This is a pathetic response. If you don't want to be the bottom than be better by improving yourself, not relying on someone else's struggles.

Calm down ADPi, no one is getting kicked off campus. I know y’all are concerned about dropping to the bottom after Theta’s new pledge class but this is pretty sad. Starting rumors on Greek rank wont fix your retention problems.

Leave Theta alone. They do their own thing and don't ask for anyone's approval. It's admirable actually.

This BS. Theta is fine! Their girls are happy and have a great sisterhood.

Just because a house is bottom tier doesn't mean they're more genuine or noble or sisterly than top houses.

Bottom houses are bottom for a reason. Fix yourselves instead of making excuses.

@Whatever no one is making excuses for Theta and no one is saying they're more sisterly than the next sorority - just saying they're good with who they are. Not everyone is interested in drinking the Kool-Aid. Check yourself - your hatred is scary, but I guess this is Halloween, right....

If Theta gets kicked off, then Alpha Phi would be right there with them. They have almost identical retention rates - tend to recruit slightly higher numbers but can't seem to hold on to them. Plus they have a much lower GPA than Theta.

First off, sororities aren't kicked off unless they seriously violate both the organizational bylaws and usually the 'law' as well. Usually seen with fraternities who do major hazing and pledges are injured.

What I think you're asking is if Theta is being closed by their nationals. First, this is a very serious thing, not taken lightly. Second, a national organization usually keeps the charter with plans to return years later, they're simply 'closing' for a period of time. Third, it sometimes - not always - happens if a chapter has struggled for years to meet quota, if the costs of running the chapter start to exceed to income from members, etc. There are a lot of factors and this is something very carefully considered.

I know Theta has struggled meeting quota for a long time, but they have always seemed to have a close sisterhood so I hope this is simply a rumor.

But please be clear - unless they've violated the law, etc., they won't be kicked off campus. Use the correct language, it matters.

i overheard two thetas talking about some meeting when their nationals came in the other day, said something about closing. who knows

I mean if they're at 200 something members when campus total is much higher, it probably hurts theta nationals to not have them operating at full capacity.

it would hurt to have close any theta chapter in the south. They are strong chapters at every other campus and honestly I think thetas above adpi now tbh

Nationals is not going to close a chapter with 250 girls. Even if Theta is one of the smaller chapters on our campus, it's still going to be one of the larger Theta chapters. Take your trolling somewhere else.

Well that would be a lousy way to notify someone their sorority home was being shut down. Their Nationals must be crap!
