Ok, Ill attempt to answer some questions, but remember I only heard this from a few actives, so it may be a little hazy....here goes:
The fraternity that left (which is my (almost) father-in-laws fraternity....he proposed to his wife in that house!) was in BIG trouble. They have stated that IF they recharter they will wait until anyone who was ever a member of that house has graduated from school. When talking to the father-in-law he doesnt think they will come back anytime soon.
I heard that they are "renting-to-own" the new house...Im not quite sure.
A new fraternity (possibly TKE, but that again could be a rumor) is moving into our old house. They will only rent it because it was built for us by us and is a historical landmark.
There should be TONS of work to do in the new house. I only went there a few times when I was in college, but it was trashed then. Apparently they had a sledge hammer moving out party when they found out they were gone. The work should take all summer to fix it up, but the girls have already chosen rooms in the main house and the annex next door. They will move in and have rush (ack...recruitment, sorry) there next fall.
I will really miss the old house. So much happened there. But I know the new house has so many benefits that will help us out. We have pretty much doubled in size in the past few years, and this will help us to compete with the other houses. I am going to try to visit my old suite sometime soon. Ill be back in colorado for my wedding in a week or so. Just need to say goodbye.
