I thought it might be fun to see which cities have served as HQ for each of our Greek organizations.

Has your HQ always been in Indy? If not, where else?

Kappa Sigma IMH has been located in Charlottesville, VA since 1969. Before that, all records and stuff was housed at the homes of the Secretaries. They just built a new HQ in the last two years.

Phi Mu Alpha HQ has been located in Evansville, IN since the 1980s.

Kappa Delta
1925: A central office for Kappa Delta is created by decision of the National Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana.

1931: The Central Office moves to St. Louis, Missouri.

1943: The central office relocates to Springfield, Missouri.

1975: National Headquarters (please not the name change) heads west to Denver, Colorado. It is in the remodeled chapter house that formerly belonged to Chi Chapter at the University of Denver.

January 1993: Kappa Delta moved into our new national headquarters building in Memphis, Tennessee.

Source: I found my pledge manual, which isn't what they are called, but it is what it is. Basically everything written is a direct quote from the book.

Interesting that both our headquarters moved to Memphis in 1993!

Looking at the addresses, we moved next door to each other. There are several other headquarters on the same street.

They are right around the corner from each other. Pi Kappa Alpha hq is RIGHT next door to Chi Omega.

To quote from the website:

"After being located in the Chicago, Illinois, area for more than three decades, the Gamma Phi Beta offices were moved to Englewood, Colorado, in 1979. From 1979 to 1991, Headquarters remained in Englewood, until a new headquarters was constructed and completed in 1992 in Centennial, Colorado."

We are the only interfraternal organization headquartered in Colorado.

1967 actually. From 1967–1970, the Fraternity's offices were in an office building in downtown Evansville. In 1970, the Fraternity bought the property on the outskirts of Evansville that we named Lyrecrest and moved the offices there.

Prior to 1967, our offices were essentially wherever the supreme secretary-treasurer (later national secretary-treasurer) was.

• 1919-1949 (Charles E. "Casey" Lutton)—Chicago (the Lyon & Healy Building at 64 East Jackson Boulevard)
• 1949-1967 (Price Asher "Pop" Doyle)—Murray State University, Murray, Kentucky

FYI: Murray State's Price Doyle Fine Arts Center (opened circa 1971) is named in his honor.

If I had ever known that, I'd forgotten. Thanks!
