Hey! Sorry we kind of dropped off the face of the earth. We are getting pretty busy with classes and rush (formal recruitment week starts this wednesday and bid day is Sept 16 I believe). The house is great! We'll get some more pictures up as soon as possible.
There still aren't any letters on the front of the house, but there are over the main entrance and over the back entrance- I'm sure that will change in time.
We are still getting all the glitches worked out- making sure every room has internet, trying to get all of the showers working properly, etc.
Cool features- we have a High Def 102" projector screen in the dining room, we usually watch football games on it (it was great during tailgating for our season opener!), we can also use it during chapter. In the rec room we have a 58" plasma screen mounted on the wall. We are getting a pool table for the room as well. In the library we are starting to put up a bunch of composites/the creed/etc that we just got out of storage from some of our alumni.
In the courtyard, around that tree, there are bricks with the names of alumni who gave money to the housing project- including several Alpha Chapter members.
Rush parties have been going really well! A lot of people have been over to the house, and the head of UAPD commented on the fact that our house blew the other greek houses away. We are very proud of it.
If y'all ever come near Northwest Arkansas feel free to drop by! A lot of alumni have been stopping in, and we are always excited to show hospitality to brothers.
More later. If you have any specific questions you can reach me at
