I meantioned it in the old school thread. It was the Rutgers TKE house. The house was a mess but if they cleaned it up it would look alot better. Internationals can't afford to help with houses. Never could it is not their job. Maybe if every chapter paid all the money they owe to internationals they could start a project like that. It probably is a pain just to make the insurence payments to keep the chapters open. Everytime a TKE chapter gets busted for alcohol violations the insurence goes up. No I don't work for internationals but I know they are not rolling around in money to fix up and buy houses for chapters. Ask any chapter around even the really old ones. Alumni and undergrads helped pay to get the houses they have and it is there job to maintain them. I Have been a alum close to three years now. My chapter has a house. It could use a little work but you would be amazed the ways fellow fraters can fix up things when they pool their resources. In my undegrad days I bashed internationals too. But I know its not their fault some chapters don't have houses and some chapters to fix up their houses. It is the fraters job to maintain it so it looks like it is in good shape
