We actually have a nice mixture of the two options. We have a small (10 women) house that is owned by the college. We operate it as a special interest house. We recieve all the benefits of the dorms. It factors into tution/ fin aid, housekeeping, maintence, etc. It keeps our dues ususally below $150. We have storage space etc. If your college offers this it is a great way to have our space but also be within the college.

Some of the frats rent. They have issues with major maintence. You'll have to worry about those issues. where as we don't. i like what we have we can do ritual, hold meeting and such. also with a small number of spaces we don't have to worry about filling we have about 1/3 living in the house. having people live in the dorms is great! we have RA's and also people that meet new people on their floors. it is great for recuritment.

hope this helps!
