A colony is a group of students interested in becoming a new chapter of Phi Sigma Pi. The colonization process is what Phi Sigma Pi uses to lay the foundation for a strong, successful chapter to emerge on the new campus. The basic steps of the colonization process typically include the following.

  • Engage the university to build a partnership for success
  • Implement a campus-wide advertising and interest-generating campaign
  • Contact local alumni and nearby chapters to solicit their support
  • Hold initial membership recruitment sessions
  • Train, organize and prepare the interested members through the Brotherhood Education Program
  • Complete the requirements for university recognition
  • Search for a chapter advisor
