The result was   delete. Consensus clear, although relatiely few pariticpants. And I agree: we normally delete sororities in only one or two campuses.  DGG ( talk ) 21:13, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Eta Iota Sigma

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable sorority. Fails WP:ORG. Not a member of any national Greek conferences (like National Panhellenic Conference). Only 2 chapters in Texas. Basically a local club. GrapedApe (talk) 13:16, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Minded to Delete per nom, but I am not sure what the benchmarks of notability are for a sorority - has this ever come up for consideration before? --Legis (talk - contribs) 09:16, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Typically a fraternity or sorority is notable if it is national in scope (i.e. has numerous chapters is multiple states), if it is a member of a recognized national umbrella organization (i.e. National Panhellenic Conference), or if it is profiled in Baird's Manual of American College Fraternities, a fraternity/sorority encyclopedia. This organization satisfies none of those. --GrapedApe (talk) 12:41, 7 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete as lacking in-depth coverage in reliable, independent third-party sources. Should such sources be integrated into the article feel free to leave a note on my talk page and I'll take another look. Stuartyeates (talk) 19:36, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
