Excerpts from ^^:
The UA system board of trustees approved a Stage I resolution to build new housing for the sororities Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Gamma Delta, Delta Delta Delta and Delta Gamma, Thursday.
. . . the houses will be built behind the President’s Mansion in the new Magnolia Development.
Gentry McCreary, director of greek affairs, said sororities were able to apply for the new housing, and the four chosen were selected based off of need and merit.
He said topics such as grade point average, community service and number of members played into the selection process for the bid for housing. . . .
McCreary said the greek community has more than doubled in size since 2003 when it was about 3,000 members strong. . . .
McCreary said other sororities will have the chance to move into the houses the selected sororities leave on Sorority Row. . . .
All the sorority houses are expected to be opened by fall 2012.
