I am an electronic security professional dealing in fire alarm and life safety systems. I welcome legislation that will further protect GLO lives and assets. Sprinkler systems are incredibly expensive to retrofit to a fraternity or sorority chapter house. I'm all for any way to lower the cost of this necessary equipment and its related systems.

Many fraternities have chapter houses that are in dire need of updated fire alarm systems. It's scary. However, new fire alarm systems tend to cost some bucks. The good news is that there are many financing options available.

I've found that sororitys often have better alarm systems that are current with local fire codes. Fraternities could learn a thing or two from sororitys on this vital subject.
