That's just physical infrastructure. I didn't go into any of the houses or talk to any members. If AEPhi still had a chapter there, I might have knocked on their door, but that chapter is dormant, and in any case recruitment had just ended and everyone was gearing up for football season.

the Phi Mu house is a larger version of their original house....back when all were very different. They didn't want to build new but did when they were certain they could reuse the style. There are a couple of houses right now from the old rows that are "swing"houses - used for groups who want to rebuild or add on/renovate - fraternities included. Since it is UA land, they just hold on to them. That land could be used. And there is an old dorm to the southeast of the DG house that could torn down as well.
