Once a goodly amount is raised in an NIC/NPC joint project, loans against that money could be made. It can be done, it's just a matter of picking up the torch. (ouch, bad simile!)

honeychile, you are on fire! (My turn to be bad!)
But in all seriousness, I agree. As I posted earlier, I think it would be a great show of unity for Greek systems to group together and raise money for sprinkler systems and other safety upgrades.
For example, a simple and quick way to raise funds would be to have buckets at all the gates for all the home football games. $1 per person times 50,000 attendees per game with at least five home games and you have $250,000.00. (50,000 x 5 = 250,000) While that won't cover the whole Greek system, it sure would help.
