Housing, anyone know?
Okay, so we had a rush workshop today about Crowning Events, and at one point our Recruitment Advisor started talking about the housing situation. I've known since I joined in Fall of 2001 that all the sororities here at MTSU were planning to get houses within a few years (we have chapter rooms right now). Well since last Spring the plans have actually been in progress after we took surveys on what we're looking for as far as sleeping arrangements, size, meal plans, etc.
Anyhow, obviously since we have a National Housing Corp., we have the money to "start building tomorrow, if we wanted to," as the advisor put it. What doesn't make sense to me though, is she said that chapter total had something to do with it, and that maybe we have to have a certain number of sisters before we start building???
We are only 8 people less than chapter total, and since 2 girls dropped out before pledging last Fall, we're allowed to take 10 new girls in in Crowning this Spring. The advisor made it sound as if they could start building next fall after our chapter size is up to around 115 or so. What's the deal with this? Does anyone know why the size has anything to do with keeping us from building right away??? I mean, most of the fraternities are half our size or less and 12 out of the 14 IFC fraternities here have houses!
Is this a ZTA rule thing or do you think it's our school or the school's Panhellenic Council??? I remember PC saying that all the sororities had to build at the same time or something to that effect, but that doesn't seem fair that we would have to wait for all the other sororities when not all of the fraternities have houses or even equal ones at that.
