University of Kentucky requires all greek housing to be up to code complete with fire alarms/detectors/sprinklers. If the FCB's dont have the cash to bring it up to the required code tough luck. The campus fire dept. will not hesitate at all to shut them down if not brought up to code by required dates. There have been numerous cases of some of the fraternity houses being condemned until brought up to code. I've never heard of any of the sorority houses being shut down for this though.
