All the sororities close here for the summer, many of them do maintenance and I wouldn't be surprised if it is also cost saving in regards to utilities, insurance, house director salaries, and so on. The fraternities are a mix, and Sigma Chi has apartments that many sorority women rent and share. I know of one fraternity at Wazzu that closed in the summer and wouldn't let members leave their personal property there. I can see why they made that choice as they wouldn't be responsible for damage or theft. There's also lots of subletting of apartments and campus is easy to get to even without a car.
It could be interesting if sororities did a rotating schedule of being open so women would have a place to live but work could still be done.
