[33girl]

When I went through rush, there were 2 sororities with official off campus houses (one huge, one smaller), one sorority w/ an on campus suite, and 4 that didn't have anything or that had unofficial houses.

The one w/ the huge house wasn't even a possibility as far as getting along w/ the girls, etc. I joined the group w/ the smaller house. I have to say that I liked the house and it was nice and homey, and it was a LITTLE bit of a factor, but it didn't make the final decision for me. I think I liked the house because I liked the sisters, not the other way around.

And Benzgirl is right, it's different for EVERYONE. I'm sure there were some people who walked into that suite and couldn't wait to live there...to me, it was a bit claustrophobic. But again, I think that was more the girls rather than the actual physical facility.
