Am so glad they added some detail. The first drawing I saw was quite plain. This is much more appealing!

Quoins do make a difference.
Very reminiscent of the current house.

Hah are there floorplans for this one?

My understanding is that they wanted to maintain the style of the current house.

Delta Gamma broke ground for their new house this past Saturday (7/23). Article discusses their colonization.

Future new house at Alabama...

This afternoon I spoke with a past president of the Tri Delta chapter at Univ. of Alabama about a business matter. She was happy to tell me how the plans were going for the new chapter house.

According to the plan she mentioned the chapter will remain in the present house until the new structure is completed. They will then be able to move directly into their new home. The chapter is so large they are in need of more space. She had only seen an architectural drawing of the new chapter house and amenities.

Bumping!

Here is the schedule:

(Bama peeps, let me know if anything has changed)

Do we know how many are signed up as of right now?

Whoever above wrote that this will be like the NFL draft of sororities, you're right!

And whoever above wrote that they'd be fine without a house, you're wrong. Sorority life at Bama is incredibly competitive for both PNMs and the chapters. If a chapter tried to colonize without a house at Bama, they'd flop. BIG.

Uber impressive!

Greek Girly, I do understand what you mean about the fact that sororities to be competitive need a house -- in the long run HOWEVER, women do not pledge physical structures (houses) they pledge sisterhoods. I have seen amazing groups not only pledge quota but be EXTREMELY ( and I mean EXTREMELY ) competitive even without a house on campus' where other groups have structures.

Just sayin' :eek:

100% agree.

This is a prime example of things that work on some campuses won't always fly on others.
