The groups that we don't have are:
Alpha Phi
Alpha Xi Delta
Alpha Gamma Delta
Gamma Phi Beta
Sigma Delta Tau
Theta Phi Alpha
Alpha Sigma Alpha
Alpha Sigma Tau
Sigma Sigma Sigma
Phi Sigma Sigma

I could see Alpha Phi, Gamma Phi Beta, Alpha Gamma Delta, and Sigma Delta Tau trying. Alpha Phi has been going to big schools in the last several years, including Kentucky, Bama, LSU, and that school in Tallahassee. I bet they apply.

Alpha Xi Delta had a chapter at UF in the 80's they had a house near Theta but the chapter folded. Their house was torn down and apartments were built on the property. So they might recolonize. I would also say Alpha Phi.

Maybe you shouldn't dredge up old stuff and actually allow them the opportunity for a fresh start. What happened happened over a decade ago, and is in no way representative of what they could be. They could be selected and come on campus and succeed.

And also, Alpha Xi nationals is fine, as far as money and national support goes. Size wise they are on par with Phi Mu, Alpha Gam, Gamma Phi Beta, etc.

I don't think they were trying to dredge up old stuff. We were all curious about it.

Alpha Phi, Alpha Gamma Delta, and Gamma Phi Beta. Alpha Gam and Gamma Phi are on most big Greek campuses in the South (it's surprising they aren't already currently at UF) and Alpha Phi is quite popular else where in the country (even holding strong at the southern campuses recently colonized/recolonized) All three should be considered as the first and foremost new additions to UF's Greek community, but since it is unlikely more than one sorority will colonize at the same time (take Alabama as an example) I think the following order would be most successful.
1. Alpha Phi
2. Alpha Gamma Delta
3. Gamma Phi Beta

We should bring more than one sorority to campus!

You also need to look at where the eligible sororities are already committed to chartering a chapter.

When is the new sorority supposed to come onto campus? Fall 2015?

Alpha Phi is already committed to colonizing at UNC and Ole Miss Fall 2015, when the proposed sorority would join. Those are HUGE money schools, so it's possible, but not probable that they would also make the $6 million+ commitment for UF

Gamma Phi Beta and Alpha Xi Delta are strong contenders.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of bringing a new charter to campus?

My $ is on Gamma Phi Beta or Alpha Phi. Both have name recognition at other big FL schools. Too bad that poster above wrote about the trouble AXiD had in 2001. Not very kind, IMO - like perpetuating the reputations that someone wrote about in the 1970s at Texas. Oh well.

Exactly. It was unnecessary.

You can do a google search and easily find out what happened to their chapter and why it closed. I'm sure if they are interested in coming back, Panhellenic will treat them fairly regardless of past history which I'm sure they already know about.
