A lot of people are saying that it depends on your campus, and to an extent that is true...only if very few of the chapters (1 or 2) have a chapter house.
Others have said that a house shouldnt' be necessary b/c sisterhood/brotherhood isn't made by living in a house.
That may be true, but remember this is a competition for rushees.
Remember to look at this from a rushee's perspective: if everythign is fairly equal what are they more likely to choose? Not saying all rushees arent' sophisticated enough to look beyond a house, but I think that it is safe to say that 99% aren't!!! Don't believe me? I'm sure if you look through some of the rush threads you will notice comments time and time again about decorations, house set up, whether the rushee liked the house, etc. IT IS IMPORTANT!!!!1
We who are on the other side know that a house is not the most important thing, but that has only come from our experiences. But again I think most people agree that when they were going through rush they weren't thinking that way...
