Here's the story... there are a LOT of unhoused chapters. I'm not sure of the stats for fraternities, but there are sixed housed sororities, and four unhoused. I think the fraternity stats are similar or an even worse percentage in terms of chapters housed on campus. Several of the fraternities have houses on what is known as "Ghetto Greek Row" just off campus. LXA is one of them, I think. what sucks, though, is the University Police doesn't patrol off camps, so I've heard of several crimes taking place there, wheras the campus is virtually crime free.
Greek Park 2 is allegedly in the works. From what I heard last, the Board of Trustees had approved it, and it was pending approval by Gov. Bush. (or someone at the state level) For now, though, no one is able to get a house on campus unless a chapter loses one. Which means that several groups have the means to build a house, but can't because right now the space isn't there.
Oh, and UCF is a wonderful school with a great Greek system. It's expanding very quickly; a new sorority (Kappa) and a new fraternity (Sigma Nu) have both came on to campus this year. I think Theta, the next to newest sorority, just came on campus the year before I came. (2000-2001 school year, if I'm correct.) GO KNIGHTS!
