Ahh yes, the gopher tortoises! At a recent retreat I went to Bill Merck, VP who (I can't remember the exact title but) takes care of all the buildings on our campus and future endeavors, told us that all the gopher-tortoises had been moved to the north side of campus. They have some sort of disease (I really can't remember, asthma, bronchitis, something) and we simply can't move them. That is the area that is near Lake Claire (across the street from the current Greek area).

The new Greek area would hopefully be across from Academic Village. It stinks that the two Greek areas would not be nearby but hey, at least they will be there!! But with all the drama on our campus currently, the administration is in NO WAY excited to build another Greek housing community. I mean, not a chance (at least for a few years!!). All we can hope for now is that some of the unhoused chapters on our campus, whether they are fraternities or sororities, will get a chance at the houses that sit empty on greek row.

I will keep you updated!
