Colonization Process: Colonization is the expansion of the Sorority to colleges and universities across the country that do not currently have chapters of Tau Beta Sigma. Sometimes colonization takes place on a campus that has never been affiliated with the Sorority. The colonization period is a probationary time during which at least (5) dedicated band students work together to obtain active chapter status. This group is referred to as a colony.
Theta Xi HistoryHerbert was found just in time for the April ‘99 District Convention that was held at Iowa State. Herbert was found by LeAnna Heath in an airport gift shop.
