hi ivysis! haven't seen you around in awhile. this is good news. i always felt that a larger house would really help the chapter be even more competitive in rush. the house they are moving too is incredible also. i remember going to a couple of parties there (before the campus went dry, which kind of dates me) and thinking how beautiful it was.
i have a couple of questions though and i don't know if you'd know the answers but i had to ask. first, doesn't it need a lot of fixing up? the news reports said they (the recently evicted fraternity who doesn't need to be named) caused about $20,000 in damage after they found out the charter was pulled. second, do we have any idea who owns that house? i was just wondering if they were going to want to recharter eventually since they were such a prestigious chapter at one point.
also, whose moving into the old alpha phi house? little background for everyone: the alpha phi house is about five or six blocks from campus making it the second farthest away of all greek houses. it's absolutely gorgeous with a castle like exterior and turret staircases however it is smaller than all the other sorority houses and it's status as a historical landmark plus lack of land make additions or annexes out of the question. anyway, sig ep and lambda chi both lived there briefly while we were off campus in the 80's. just wondered if a smaller fraternity wanted it (much to the chagrin of the neighbors who complained about US being loud.)
