IU chapters still use bed quota for rush, but some chapters do allow live outs (I believe only 7). If a chapter allows live outs, builds a chapter house with large common areas but only sleeps 50ish, I really think it would appeal to the women who want to live in and to the ones who want to live more independently but yet still be Greek.

A house that size would cost way more than $2 million! The new sorority houses at Alabama are costing $8 million and up for 60-70. The ones at NCSU are in the $4 million range for 40 live ins. What I wouldn't give for a $2 million house that could house 50 women!
