I'm a DPhiE alum at UGA and our house is on Lumpkin (same street that KA is on but only further down). I can't tell you how disturbing it is to have the university be so rude to the Greeks. Honestly, the fraternity and sorority houses on campus add characteristic to the university. It honestly sucks having the administration hate the Greeks so much. As of right now there are 9 houses on Lumpkin Street. In the end, UGA's president is trying to create a Greek Village...aka...putting all the Greeks in this one corner of campus so he can use their houses as other buildings for classes. I don't know exactly what is going to happen, but I bet it'll be harder than the university thought to get these fraternities and sororities off the street because there is way too many alumni that donate (which of course brings in ALOT of the $$$) and way too much history. Also, there's fraternity house that is in a residential area (Kappa Alpha Psi), so why can't any of the other fraternities be there too?
